No por la escritura, que me parece excelente, sino por gusto personal no disfrute de la historia, para mí una tragedia sin sentido propia de otra época y que, en mi opinión, no ha envejecido bien.

Had to read it for schoolUpdate: I decided to finally reread this book in hopes that I would understand it a little bit more and I don't.

I really liked this book, even though Juliet was only 13. It’s a cute "love" story. While it felt a bit too much for my taste, I can understand why people enjoy it. I completely agree with the view that this isn’t a romance; it’s more about the consequences of lacking family boundaries.
