30th book of 2017 - (1.5 stars) ~finished july 11, 2017~ 
 um, well, this was disappointing. kasie west's ps i like you was adorable and now a guilty pleasure read, so i headed into this with high hopes. and gosh was i disappointed. the synopsis mislead me into thinking that we would be talking about books and LIBRARIES! but...that's not what happened. all they do is go to the fridge and complain about how they're hungry and cold and whatnot. literally, the fact that autumn ISN'T a bookworm is the saddest thing, because honestly, i'd be thrilled to be stuck in a library. i could probably catch up on a whole lot of reading. but nope, she doesn't like books so the books are ignored *tear*. 
 also, can we talk about how the main character, autumn is the most boring character ever?? if i had to finish this book for a class, and we had to write something on autumn's character, the only thing i would be able to say is that she has anxiety and she likes photography. literally THAT'S IT. she's literally just another cookie-cutter YA contemporary novel protagonist. plus, her friends are horrible? so autumn says she needs to pee, and maybe because she hasn't come out for like an hour, you should CHECK THE LIBRARY BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE SHE SHOULD BE? and no one comes to find her? more on the unrealistic-ness later. also her friends have no personalities? i still have no clue who lisa is :/ 
 it's 2017, y'all, and if books are stiLL being published with freaking love triangles, i'm going to cry. how much has the book community ranted about love triangles. for freaking forever! plus, she didn't even wrap things up with jeff, the guy she used to like (who, btw, actually liked her before as well *facepalm*) that well. she just says, "well, sorry man, i like this new dude now" and they're friends again? like what?? heck, it must've been really embarrassing for jeff to tell his mom, "hey mom, you know that girl who i talked about a lot and you let her in when i was in the hospital? well, turns out that she liked me before, but now she likes this dude that she stayed in the library with." 
 my main problem is that this book is so unrealistic? let's say that you and your group of friends leave a library that's closing, and friend a says that she's going to go to the bathroom. you wait for about 10 minutes, and she's not coming out. you wait for another 20 minutes, and she's still not coming out. DON'T YOU THINK THAT'S A LITTLE ODD? when you call the police, don't you think that the first place they should look is the place you last saw your friend, aka the library??? plus, library's have phones! is this books set in the 1800s? because you could just use those to call your parents and leave. does the security not do a once over of the entire place to make sure no one was left? UGH. *frustration* 
 all and all, this book was a disappointment. it was unrealistic, had boring characters, and love triangles *cringe*. read at your own risk, bookworms. the bookish part you're excited for? it's talked about for like two pages, and then ignored. i know. horrifying.
