A classic distopian YA. Nothing special tbh about this book.
I don't like the romance, I don't like the love triangle (such a YA classic)... The plot is actually a circle, goes nowhere.
As always our main character is more interested in boys than anything else, which is not shocking, just a fact.
Giving 2,5 stars because I like the world and the concept. Minus 2 stars for word repetition (“I blink blink blink”) and I can not read more about boys eyes! God, how many times I need to know that they are green?! AND minus 0.5 for predictible plot and love triangle.
However I believe girls between 13 to 18 may like this book.
DNF at 70%
I could not finish this book! It took me almost 3 months...
I prefer books with less sex scenes and more character development. Yes, I know that Anastasia's arc is great or wathever, but I didn't care about her, nor Nate.
I like books that focus on the relationship and intimacy is kinda reward, not the moving gear of the relationship. Here they were naked at chapter 7 but she only started to deal with her problems on chapter 25!
Too childish, naive and boring.
It was okay. It feels a lot that the book was written by someone who uses a lot of stereotypical italian ideias.
It is totally an “americanised” version of Italy not actual Italy. There where too many clichés and bad representations. As European the book wasn't for me.
The only good part was main character's mom story. The rest... I didn't care about it.
