Hang on a sec.
I'm gonna leave the rating blank now, cause I feel like I wouldn't have given this book five stars had I read it today. Yeah, it definitely impacted me once upon a time, but now... I've read so many unbelievably emotional books that this one just seems to, quite frankly, fade into the background. I've read a handful of eye-opening reviews and analyses that have made me see this book in a new light. A dimmer light, sadly.
Sorry to disappoint the people who liked my former review, where I claimed that this book was so "heart-destroying" and whatnot. That was my younger self being overly dramatic, I think.

I know what you mean. The feelings are not all explainable.

Forget a box of tissues. Get a bucket. xD
OMG that last moving photo of taylor is EXACTLY what i did i was like roaring in pain and crying and everything was wet and i was like no augustus dont die dont die she needs u grenade!
I think there was a warning on the front. I just realised this but clouds rain, and what did our eyes do while we were reading this book? Rain. IT WAS THE CLOUDS! How haven't I realised this before.
I totally agree. After reading this book, I stayed up till one am crying. Ps r u a gleek bcause i see quinn fabray in your crying people pictures and i love glee
I know the feels. *sniffles* *sobs* Life is just not fair.
This book made me cry so much ;-;
I saw the film 2 days ago and I was just crying like hell. So extremely like I never did apart from during TITANIC. Maybe I cried even harder. Now I decided to forget about all the books I borrowed from the library for a while and to stop reading everything I'm reading right now and get to read this, JUST THIS ONE, THIS HELL OF A BOOK. No matter if I want or not. I just HAVE TO. Although I know this is going to break me into a million pieces. The delivery is hopefully already on it's way. I just CAN'T WAIT.
I most definitely disagree, but yes, you're entitled to your own opinion.
Do you have any book recommendations that have similar or greater impact than this book?
How can one use this app to read pls?
