bookshelves: could-not-put-down, cute, kindle, teen, super-geek, what-has-my-life-become
You know, I shouldn't hate on this so hard since I've barely read anything this year and Rainbow Rowell has managed to trick me into reading two books in a month. (On my phone, no less, which is LIKE, GOD, AMAZING.) (See what I did there? I made fun of the 80's bs slang that was occasionally sprinkled in but not consistently enough that I wasn't like da fuq every time it happened. Also, back to back parentheses YEAH!)
It wasn't as funny as Fangirl. It had more plot, I guess. I wish the plot hadn't been a rejected Law & Order: SVU episode but I won't be so choosy/bitchy. Let's be real, there's something about Rowell that makes me not want to tear her a new asshole. I can't put my finger on what it is though. There's so much ammunition just sitting there for me and you can go back through my goodreads and see- I'm ruthless. What is it about this chick? Am I lost to bitchiness forever? Bitchiness was my first love, so I knew it couldn't last but maybe I could hope for one thing to go right in my life just this once??!!!

Quotes Lindsey Liked
“Nothing before you counts," he said. "And I can't even imagine an after."
She shook her head. "Don't."
"What?"
"Don't talk about after."
"I just meant that... I want to be the last person who ever kisses you, too.... That sounds bad, like a death threat or something. What I'm trying to say is, you're it. This is it for me.”
