First book of the year! What a great way to start 2017 oh m 
 I am sO. DAMN. HAPPY. After the let down that I faced with 'Tell Me Again How a Crush Should Feel', this book felt like a huge breath of fresh air. And also a bit like a painful stab in my heart. But isn't that what great books are all about? 
 GOD, I don't even know where to start. This story was so painfully beautiful. It is all about love and getting to know each other and ourselves and to be okay with who we are. I am probably sounding so lame right now but it melt my poor little gay heart. 
 All the characters are flawless. AND ALSO. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. SIGN ME UP. Emi grows so much throughout the whole story, being so obsessed with movies at first but then learning about life and how reality might sometimes be better than fiction. I could connect with her on so many levels; at first she was so heartbroken but, bit by bit, she rebuilds herself and finds her way out of it, and I think that's beautiful. Also, her inner monologue is so beautifully written. Nina LaCour's style made me fall in love from the very beginning, with the metaphors and amazing descriptions and beautiful scenarios and Jesus Fucking Christ, such a good book. 
 I don't know what else to tell you other than read this. It is so sweet, so warm, so light-hearted. LaCour grabs some pretty controversial issues but treats them with kindness and, at the same time, intensity. I am in love with all its components and details and twists and, of course, it left me crying outloud for more !! gay !!!! fluff !!!!!
