WARNING: SPOILERS
Hello, everyone! So, this is obviously my first review and sadly I did not like this book very much. It was okay. I liked it at the beginning and I thought that the writing style was unique, but only at first. After a while it got annoying and I thought Tahereh Mafi was trying way too hard to be "poetic" and "lyrical" but ugh I hated it so much. And Juliette? God, she was annoying. She makes me want to vomit. I liked Juliette and Adam together at first but oh, my god everything really got annoying after a while. Like, I was in love with this book at first and I thought I was gonna be obsessed and have to buy the second book right away but gah I really did not like this book. Okay, I really hate the fact that almost every guy in the book was like in love with Juliette. I really hate that, especially since she hated herself and all these guys were fawning over her while she was just moping about how she wishes she was dead. I kind of like Warner? Like, not really but kind of. Oh, my god can we please talk about the fact that Juliette felt "an electric charge" that she "hadn't anticipated" between her and Warner. Oh, god that was the most annoying thing ever like he just told you your boyfriend was dead and now you decide to fall in love with him. And when she "never realized before just how attractive his voice is." Shoot me now. That is what I call desperate. She loses one guy and automatically kind of falls for another. I really despise Juliette. So overall this book was irritating. I didn't like the character and I didn't like the "unique" writing style but the one thing I did like was the story. Sorry if you liked this book but honestly I really didn't.
Overall Rating: ★★☆☆☆
