The author perpetrates the trope that the female lead must be docile and take shit from people just based on this skewed idea of love. Vee is so done and leaves, as she should, I loved how she texted him and told him she saw Lacey and him making out. That’s just one of the many adjectives I can use to describe this amazing book that I adore so much! I get that Xav was afraid she would tell the school about his mom fucking a minor and her going to jail. I have not read anything Cynthia author before but intend to follow her now and seek out more of her work.

And honestly, it felt like he thought with his dick even though he presents himself in a way where you would think otherwise. There was just so much shit going on with everyone and I was so funny because it was just absolutely ridiculous in every sense.At the beginning of the story, i really liked their characters but at the end they were intolerable. I’m already invested in Finn and Dia’s story and that’s just from the masterful mystery Eliah created surrounding Xav and Vee’s best friends. He doesn’t waste a single second taking my face into his hands, aligning his gaze with mine as he whispers, “Can I say it then?

Of course, eventually they will discover the truth, and they’ll be stuck reconciling their two worlds- figuring out now only who they are to each other once the truth is out but if it is possible for them to be anything to each other. I mean sure you can have a bad side and geeky side, but please don’t make comments like ‘… would he ever fall in love with the nerd? at the beginning it was a realistic highschool story kinda, there was no drama, it was very realistic and i loved it but again, towards the end ( from 60%) it became very dramatic and the characters went from amazing to okayish to tolerable to annoying to get the fuck out. Gente, essa série precisa ser lida toda porque os personagens secundários tem profundidade que só conseguimos alcançar lendo seus pensamentos e motivações.And I think what ive always loved about pen-pal romances is that we see two people who believe that would never connect find an undeniable bond through the letters. Brie is kissing Xav while sitting on his lap and he looks at Vee and texts her saying he wishes it was her. Xav kisses the first person who comes up to him (bitchy-sidekick-cheerleader) thinking that it’s vee. I wished that Aveena was not so judgemental and whiny, same as Xavier, i wished he was not so whiny.
