This was ... okay. The second half was significantly better than the first. I read this because there's a movie coming out this year and there's been a lot of buzz about how fantastic it was and I was expecting it to be fantastic, and it was just okay. I think maybe I'm too old? I pretty much don't ever want to read another book by this author.

This was delightful! Sometimes I think I've just aged past enjoying YA, but then something like this will come along. I was thoroughly enchanted and I couldn't wait to find out what happens next. Simon's friends and family are a lot of fun, and his journey was compelling (despite the fact that I'm not too big on coming of age stories).
Looking forward to reading Leah on the Offbeat! ...more

This book was so perfect to me. It was the exact book I needed coming off of mainly fantasy for quite sometime now. It kept me smiling, giggling, and sometimes just downright snorting. It was cute and light, yet so damn fulfilling. I really just want to go back to page one and devour it again.
I'm also pretty obsessed with using the Bookout app. And now I just want to insert these whenever I finish any book, but I kind of suck at inserting stuff. Or something. Whatever...it's still cool.
