I literally loved this book so much, it got me out of a horrendous reading slump and I read it in just 2 days. There were so many quotes and references to my favorite romcoms and an addictive soundtrack.
The reason for their break up was heartbreaking and the forced miscommunication was not as annoying as it usually is - I understood Wes's though process. Wes was really interesting to read and I loved seeing his interactions with Helen.
I do however wish we had gotten more of Liz's perspective of after the break up. What really pushed her to change so much? Changing her whole wardrobe over a break up and you're not going to explain her thought process on it? Really?
ALSO! Are you telling me Wes never finds out Liz and Clark were FAKE dating? How does Clark cope not having Wes as his best friend?
