Sinossi
Se l’amore fosse un film, per Liz sarebbe una commedia romantica. Il suo lieto fine, però, è ancora tutto da scrivere. Sin da quando era bambina, Liz sogna un amore da film. Grazie a una passione smisurata per le commedie romantiche, nella sua testa il copione è già scritto: un giorno incontrerà il ragazzo perfetto e insieme vivranno per sempre felici e contenti. Perciò, quando la sua cotta storica torna in città, Liz non può che interpretarlo come un segno del destino: il lieto fine è in arrivo, è lui quello giusto. Il primo passo per mettere le basi del loro eterno amore è convincerlo a invitarla al ballo di fine anno. Per farlo, Liz ha bisogno di un piccolo aiuto. E anche se controvoglia, è costretta a chiederlo a Wes, il suo vicino di casa nonché nemico giurato, lo stesso che le ha infilato una rana nella casa di Barbie. Più tempo passano insieme, però, più Liz si rende conto che Wes non è più il bambino dispettoso di un tempo. Adora provocarla e sa essere una discreta spina nel fianco, ma è anche capace di farla ridere, la ascolta e sembra capirla sul serio. All’improvviso Liz è costretta a riesaminare tutto quello che credeva di sapere sull’amore. Perché nel mondo reale il gran finale non è sempre quello che ci si aspetta.

(2.5/5) To say that I disliked this book would be somewhat of an understatement. My first problem with this book was that Liz, the main character, was absolutely infuriating.

Liz and I could never be friends… . . Let me explain: When I picked up better than the movies, I was expecting a very cliché and predictable YA book with plot lines I had read before. Everything was going great until we got introduced to ✨Lying Liz✨ Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have issues when character Leggi tutto

Ahhh SO GOOD! I'm obsessed. The characters, the plot, the romcom references, the romance. Every aspect was so good and so well written. Once I hit the middle I stayed up super late and read the whole second half of the book in one sitting. What I would give to read this book for the first time again Leggi tutto
