This is not literature, it's garbage
Spoiler, childhood friends kiss and swear love forever, he moves away and they lose contact, he comes back a rebel and she has cancer. Further spoiler, they have sex and she dies. During the month of September 2017 when my family began an extended black out after a devastating hurricane, I read this book which happened to be available on the phone that I would charge in my car. This is one of the most pathetic, predictable, clichéd, manipulative, and poorly written things that I have read in many years, or possibly in my whole life. When I got to the end and she had even written a SOUNDTRACK to this painful mess, I laughed out loud because I guess the author thinks that it will be a movie some day? The only reason I finished the book was because of the horrible conditions outside of my home. Do yourself a favor. DO NOT READ THIS. You will lose hours or days of your life that you can never regain. And you cannot unread it. The only thing that I could recommend would be to read it to laugh or to dissect it in a class that criticizes horrible literature.
