Y’all ready for my jumbled thoughts?
WHERE DO I BEGIN?! I had high expectations for this novel and it somehow exceeded them?!
Our main focus is August and of course Jane, but we have quite the ensemble of characters and I adored every single one. The romance? Incredible. The plot? Intriguing. The pop culture references? Obsessed!
I am so excited I understood everything that was referenced. There is a Lost reference about being a constant and wow way to make my heart ache years later 😭
The first half of the book drops us into August’s new life in New York. Soon she meets Jane on the subway and her life changes. The first half really set up the second half without being too in your face. We learn everything the same time as August. The second half is just a rollercoaster of emotions. I would be sad then happy then crying then freaking out! This book is definitely a new all time favourite and it has been so long since I wanted to scream about a book 😩
I am still processing to be honest. I am just gonna have some pancakes or a chocolate bagel and watch Say Anything. Maybe listen to an oldies radio station. Read the book to understand and feel what I’m feeling. Please!
Also, August is bisexual and wow we are just WINNING aren’t we?
