Me pareció un libro muy lindo. Aúnque siento que no es lo mío leer en primera persona es entretenido y dolorosamente hermoso.

Mood: hopeful · melancholic Pacing: medium-paced Focus: character-driven

🫁1.75 stars⌛I thought this would be really heartbreaking, and while it made me cry, it kind of disappointed me at the same time.🫰The concept was really good! I don't know about the execution though...👌Minor issue here: Will lending out his room for Hope and Jason did kind of disgust me.👎Pacing was a little fast. The characters' reactions were immediate and had no process -- skipping straight to anger instead of disbelief -> grief -> acceptance -> anger.👎The way they resolve their problems made me apoplectic. Their lives are at risk if they come too close together, yet they repeatedly cross the boundary again and again. Which is cute and everything, but in a real-life context, extremely foolish.👎The ending was kind of underwhelming... things are left unclear and it felt like an open ending (which I don't like).

Hace tiempo que no lloraba tanto por un libro. Aunque me habría gustado otro final
