i loved it. it has so many funny moments mixed with real emotions. it deals with facing your own self and realizing you suck. but it’s perfectly okay because everyone else sucks too and you just have to accept that nobody is perfect. i promise the book is not that sad. that’s just the main takeaway i got. but it has romance, betrayal, deceit, angst and humor. AGH. i loved it.
