definitely understand why this is a classic. i was scared to read it because i didn't know how much it would capture my attention but i'm glad i challenged myself. i adore the film and am a little disappointed to find it's iconic lines aren't from the book but i'll definitely be reading more austen in the future!

Nothing groundbreaking but I love Melanie Murphy and this book felt like having a chat and getting advice from your older sister. I so wish I had this book when I was a teenager. 💖

This story was SO GOOD! I'm only giving it three stars because it was very slow for me and i wished the pacing was different.

putting opinions and politics aside, this books was so good! i listened to prince harry read his book and was so moved by the emotion he had for the contents. you could tell this was his truth, his side of the story and that it was cathartic for him to speak out.

I had a very hard time finishing this book. i wanted to love it but it felt very juvenile. The book was full of stereotypes and it honestly felt like it was trying too hard. I wasn't rooting for the two characters to get together because i did not like the main character at all.

Oh I LOVED this book! 
it started off a smidge slow but i loved the true crime themes and the relationship developments between the characters. i also loved the main character's self development and how she processes through her childhood. also SAM COPELAND DENNINGS🥹🥹🥹🥹
