Beautiful

I cannot understand the hype of this book. I read it...the whole ridiculous thing. The actual writing and diction weren't bad. It is the whole plot concept that I find appalling. It romanticized a womanizing thug with obvious, and dangerous, anger issues. He sleeps with multiple women while she is in the house with him...And that is appealing how? What utter trash. I almost never give scathing reviews. I simply cannot find a silver lining to this horrible story.

While it was entertaining enough, the story bounced around a lot. At times the pacing was way off, and she has a way of leaving stuff out and momentarily you're confused as to what is happening. Resulting in a few re-reads. If you're wondering if this is worth the buy, I'd say absolutely not. It jumped around so much, and seriously felt like multiple books with the story lines. She does not have a good writing style. 2 out of 10.

Heartfelt, relatable, realistic. In this touching book Jamie McGuire captures a love story between two young people going to the same school. Travis is your regular playboy until he gets mixed up with Abby and it changes both of their worlds. The characters are relatable in the fact that they share a lot of the same struggles of others their age.
