I know that I am super late to this party, I get that. But, y’all. I feel like I should commandeer a microphone or scream from the mountain tops that I LOVE THIS BOOK. I read it on my Kindle and now I want to spend money on the physical copy so that I can carry it around always and forever and re-read my favorite parts. I’m having an inappropriate love affair with this book right now.
The day I read it I sent three texts to the friend who recommended it. The first said, “So. I’m a third of the way through the book and I love everything about it. In love with it. Can’t put it down, might get fired, but I’m finishing it today, in love with it. Sigh“. The second said, “I’ve abandoned all illusions of productivity today.” And when I finished it, “Ahhhhh. I’m done. And I’m sitting in a puddle of my own tears with a smile on my face.” If that doesn’t make you want to read it what will?
I loved it so much that I took a screenshot of my favorite parts and wasn’t even embarrassed to tell you that. I thought it was so well-written and even though it is over the top witty, it still sounded like the voice of a sixteen year old girl. I smiled almost the entire time I read and I laughed out loud and I had to stop often to take a breath or wipe my tears.
I didn’t even realize that they were making a movie until I had already started reading. And I’m afraid if I ask you to watch the trailer before you read the book that you will think it’s cheesy and cliche and that I’m gushing for absolutely no reason. I’m not. Trust me. Watch the trailer, but buy the book before you see the movie this summer. You will thank me.
Now hurry up and read it so you can come back here and discuss. Okay? Okay.
