First of all, yes, I have to review this on November 9 although I finished it last night. The quote above is one of the famous quotes from this book. It does sounds sweet, Ben Kessler is sweet. But.. I may have a love-hate relationship with this book. I don't even know should I start with the good or the bad, the characters or the plot.

Let's start with describing the good part of the characters.

I usually starts by simping over the male character but now I'll talk about the female character first. Fallon O'Neill, an innocent girl who lost many things including almost the entire left side of her body and her rising acting career, all because of the fire that burned her house. The trauma she brought from that incident made her lose her confidence to meet other people let alone to fall in love, she thought it was impossible. Until a man suddenly (like literally, so sudden) swooping in her booth when she was trying to defend herself alone to someone who she hates so much and starts defending her. Starting then, her self-confidence start shining again.

Ben Kessler is a writer, I thought that alone was enough for him to be in my book boyfriend list. His words are spoken beautifully and it does make our confidence boost up like a rocket. I mean if he said this, how would you feel?

He's the reason Fallon's self-confidence is back, he believes in her and sees her scars as part of what makes her pretty. He reads more than 20 romance books just to know what Fallon likes and wrote her a book. Yes, he did all that just for ONE girl.

Now before we move on to the plot let me tell you the things I don't really like about these two characters, starting with Ben:

1. Ben Kessler was a freaking creep when he first met Fallon. Swooping to a stranger's table, pretends to be her boyfriend, and calls her "Ladybug"?? HE COULD BE A MURDERER. WE NEVER KNOW?
2. And wondering about WHAT COLOR IS HER PANTIES when he first saw her?! Man, what a pervert.
3. Saying that it's hard for him to be an 'alpha-male' but that man literally controls Fallon to stay with him when they just met, forcing her to wear a dress that shows her insecurities (I know he meant well, and maybe that's the way that works for Fallon but still). What kind of alpha-male he wanted to be then.
4. He pays attention so much I don't know if I should feel safe or concerned :D
5. Ben Kessler is a liar and hate to say this but honestly, I saw it coming.

Did Ben make it to the book boyfriends list? Yeah, at the very bottom, though. Now about Fallon, I don't have anything much that I don't really like about her except that how she easily fell in love with someone she just met, I kinda see it like she's... craving for love?

One more before we actually talk about the plot, the other characters. I'll make it short: Hate Fallon's dad for obvious reason, love Fallon's mom for leaving him and loving Fallon, love Amber and Glenn for being such a great friend, love the Kessler's brother, no comments for Jordyn but she's not that bad, and what the hell is Miles doing here I don't like him since Ugly Love.

Alright now about the plot, how the hell do they every little details that happened last year in November 9? And most importantly, how did they survive not talking to each other or even stalking each other on social media for a year and suddenly meet up like it's a normal thing? HOW?! It's unrealistic in my mind. But the plot twist???? I think it's genius. I mean it's Colleen Hoover, genius is her middle name. However, not gonna lie, I kinda saw it coming since Kyle on the Second November 9th, I know it's gotta be related. It's still great though, I scream and hit my pillow when the plot twist came. The whole script that Ben wrote??? It left me speechless I don't even give too much annotations because holy cactus I don't know what to say.

My favorite scene is the airport scene on the first November 9th. The slow motion scene. It's definitely book-worthy. And my favorite quote would probably be

As much as I don't really like Ben in the beginning, I still love the overall of the book. 

Lastly, happy November 9! And someone please booksting me ♡
