My mistake was not reading the first two pages before I bought the book to try a new author. It was a great indication of how trying it would be to continue reading. Pg 7 how sexy drinking a sports drink was-really?! His hair "tangled like unset taffy"--I am nauseous and not in a good way. Calling each other Loser, dummy-yeah real friends here. Hannah is totally self conscious and so over the top into Will it is painful to read about when he does absolutely nothing in the first 50 pages (I literally couldn't force myself to read each page after that) to explain the attraction. Pg 28 Hannah wants to "...[be] his shark cage, the person who made everything okay, who made it so he could breathe..." How is this book getting such high reviews?! The main character hit the nail on the head pg 53 "My twelve-year-long, pathetic, ridiculous crush." Between the constant eye rolling and general nausea this book induced I just cannot recommend it to anyone. I hope it is the last time I am sucked in my a good blurb on the back without reading the beginning of the story.
