Twitter summary: Girl and Boy 1 are friends. They become friends with Boy 2. Girl and Boy 2 start dating. Fast forward to their late 20s.
The good: I’ll admit that there were certain chapters that made me tear up — those pesky tears came out of nowhere and bam, I felt Lydia’s broken heart, hopelessness and despair. This is ultimately why I’m giving this book a 3/5 rating. Silver does have a way with portraying complex, deep emotional feelings in simple words.
The bad: The plot was drawn out way longer than it needed to be. It could have easily been condensed to maximize reader feelings, not to mention time as well. I was also disappointed that it was too predictable.
Recommendation: Sure, if you feel like reading a long book.
Overall rating: 3/5 trips to Croatia (I do really want to go to Croatia though!)
