Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire
4.0
OH MY GOSH!!!! I don't even know what to say about this one. It was so intense and romantic and sometimes scary and usually hilarious! I heard a lot of mixed things about this one, but I can't wait for the second one in Travis's point of view. Then I can really judge! Still, this a book you love or hate, and I loved it! It was funny, witty, intense in a way I've never experienced, and ultimately a great love story. Yes, Travis is kind of a madmen sometimes, but he's also crazy romantic. I personally am not going to judge this relationship because I've never been in love. I don't know if love can be that intense. I do know it kept me interested and entertained. (Anyone else looking forward to this movie? If they don;t get Travis right, I'll scream!) I'm kind of a sucker for a cute bad boy, but I also liked all the other characters. Abby was a wonderful narrator, and I loved what her hidden past turned out to be. I would've never expected that! America was the ultimately best friend, and Finch was great comic relief. (And I disagree with people who call him the token gay character! What does that even mean anyway? Can't a person be gay in a story without it being some major plotline?) I felt bad for Shepley for always being caught up in Travis's problems, but I thought he was a good friend and cousin. I despised Parker only because of my love of Travis.
READ! READ! READ! You'll either love it or hate it, but I hope you love it!
