ughhhh i really wish i could like this book; the premise was so so good, and the message and heart of the story was there, but i just couldn’t

1. i hated noah, he was not likeable at all, and had like no redeeming qualities (which is bad for the main character). he was way to absorbed in the diary, and was very codependent 

2. the whole meet cute diary main-plot was just overly complicated and i was just bored, rather than invested

3. i hated noah. like he was such a dick to the people he loved, and was so selfish. 

4. the ending felt too neat and tidy for it to be realistic

5. the relationship with devin was not enjoyable, as it only occurred in the end. felt wayyy to rushed

6. devin deserved better than noah. ey could do way better

7. the characters were just so flat, i couldn’t root for anyone

on a positive note, the narration was good - it was the only thing keeping me from DNFing
