: I was so excited to read all about this book because it was all over the internet and it was so mainstream. I expected it to be so good and well, it was just okay. 
 I liked how Eleanor and Park slowly fell in love with each other; I love how they came to the realization that they liked each other and then started to be together. 
 The backgrounds of the two characters were thoroughly told but what I would like to find out more is about Eleanor. I pity her for having a family like that. As I was reading through her part of the story, my fist clenched and unclenched when her stepfather comes into view. I can't imagine how she lived with someone like that around. 
 The book was well written and it wasn't hard to understand. The words used created a vivid vision of the story and it was just really good. 
 What I just didn't like about this book was the ending. Well, I didn't hate it; I just expected a different ending. But it was still okay, people were really right, you will really remember your first love. In my account, I didn't just remembered how I got to know my first love; I also remembered how we got together and how things ended. It's bittersweet but it was unforgettable.
