personal opinions and are in no way influenced by publishers or authors who may

From this moment this showed up at
my door, I knew I was going to love it!
I put the book I was reading down, and dove into this one! The thing I love about Gayle Forman is that
she knows how to pack a punch without having to make a novel 300/400
pages. This, like some of her other
work, is only around 250 pages.
This tells the story of three different characters. You get to learn about each of their stories alone, and then how the characters collide. I will say this started off a little slow for me, and I was a little confused at first. I did not read what this was about, I just knew I wanted to read it based on enjoying the author. I had to stop and read the synopsis as I started to read as I was thinking, “what is happening.” Once I knew a little more about it, I speed through the rest of the story.

I liked learning about all three
characters and how each had “Lost their way.”
Each were suffering from a different type of loss.
I ended up finishing this, and decided
I wanted to read it again. But, this
time I wanted to check out the audiobook.
I wanted to see the story come alive, and I am so glad I picked it up
again. Where I really enjoyed the book,
I loved the audiobook.
Overall, I still really enjoyed this
one. It is not my favorite read from the
author, but still really good.
