1 star for the effort and the other for me for finishing this book.
What
In
Tarnation
.... .... .... was this???
kayy. So let me tell you how it went, shorter version but same thing. Beware! There are spoilers. Predictable but meh, here it goes:
Day 1:
Heroine arrives in Alaska where she'll stay at an exclusive boarding school managed by her uncle.
Arrives at said boarding school and was carried by Guy 1 up the stairs with much persistence (everyone's just super friendly here) and was left by her cousin in some room to ... I can't remember anymore. She was left alone, Hero comes along to warn her about staying away and some dangers that will be with her in that school. Typical. Hero stays in Heroine's mind all night. Heroine gets to meet Hero again that nigh after she wondered off and 2 guys threatened to let her out in the cold Alaskan outdoors with just jammies on - Hero swoops in to save her. Heroine can't get Hero out of her mind. Ugh
Day 2:
Heroine got invited to a party that is which also somewhat served as her welcoming party. Still having an altitude sickness, she went to said party. Saw the cliques and all that. Then came in Heroine with his posse and everyone turning around to give them attention (Boys Over Flowers scene). Heroine focuses in on Hero but ran away after Hero gave her intimidating > look while biting into a strawberry. Heroine ran and ran till she got to the library where she meet Girl 1 and became instant besties.
Day 3:
Still didn't start school because Heroine's uncle is being considerate of her altitude sickness. She decides to walk around school premises then got to the grounds where she saw Hero and Girl 1 intensely arguing. Decides to be noticed and Hero ended up storming towards her to talk to her. Heroine's heart pulses, almost beats out of her chest. Major cringe.
Heroine gets invited to a snowball where Hero warned her not to go. She did anyway.
Snowball fight. Heroine climbs tree to survive. (Intense, eh) Strong winds hit and she fell but Guy 1 dives to save her. Hero shows up livid with Guy 1 even though Heroine insisted he saved her. Heroine decides to walk back to her dorm but she started limping and Hero insisted that he carry her. So he did.
Day 4:
Heroine still hasn't gone to her classes because of her sprained ankle. Gets a text from an unknown number that ended up being the Hero's. Heroine converses with lame jokes. (I'm an ENTJ but I won't be acting comfortable with people on day 4. Via text, might I add?) Hero visits her room and starts massaging her foot (like damn, ok). Hero then leaves but sent a couple of stuff for heroine - a Twilight book and some ripped page off a book (the audacity). Heroine gets giddy with excitement with the gesture of course.
Day 5:
She finally started her first day of course Hero meets her there. Hero decides to walk her to class. Yada yada yada. Heroine had to go to another building for another class and Guy 1 happened to be there to walk with her. Showed her a shortcut tunnel so she doesn't have to cross the field to go to the other building. Heroine felt panicky about being somewhere with secret doors and such and was just wanting to go back around but was kept getting assured by Guy 1 that it's ok. Then comes in Girl 1 through a secret door and Heroine got a little assurance of some safety because of that.
damn. I'm starting to feel lazy after typing all these. Hahaha. But yeah, pretty much by day 5, they're kissing and shit. By day 7, after a lame battle scene, they've confessed their love for each other. Some recovery days later, some twists happen.
the end.
That's it. Everyone says to get through the first book cause the next ones are waaay better so I'll give the second book a chance, I guess.
