2nd reread (3rd overall read): it gets better every time. it is so raw and the sexual tension absolutely kills me.

3rd reread (4th overall read): i have recently read a lot of negative reviews about Stephanie Perkins’s books, and so i was very critical going into this read, and i did find a lot of flaws, but in the end, it is so charming and beautiful that i just can’t bring myself to not love it. this book holds such a special place in my heart, and i feel so nostalgic toward it. i can’t believe i doubted it for a second
