She enjoys her Vocab class the most and makes good use of the SAT words she learns. But Vera has recently lost her ex-best friend and love interest Charlie, and the o...

After reading this and Me Before You back to back I was thrown into a book hangover the likes of which I've never seen. It's easy to see why this was a Printz Honor book. This one's got a lot of soul. A bunch of other reviews commented that when they first picked this book up they thought, "great an...

I mean, this...

Little surprise that I loved this one too. A.S King is among the best YA out there.

3.5 Stars. Vera and Charlie had been best friends since she could remember. They knew absolutely everything about each other and had never told anyone else each other’s darkest secrets. That is, until Charlie started hanging with a different crowd. Not only did he betray Vera’s trust, he died an...
