I read it in one day, it's a quick read, and definitely worth it. The main character, Zoe,is head over heels for her boyfriend Henry, and he breaks up with her. She's willing to go through anything to get him back. She goes through a numerous amount of changes, both on the outside and inside, and does some pretty crazy things. The characters in this book are so memorable, I loved every one of them. This is an extremely relatable story, and it's funny while you also feel bad for Zoe. This book is great for anyone who just had a breakup, is trying to find themselves, or just for a quick read. I definitely recommend it! After six months and 218 kisses, Zoe is blindsided when boyfriend Henry tells her he wants out--he wants to focus on his band, he says, and not have a girlfriend right now. Zoe takes the news calmly, but she won't take it lying down. Zoe writes him poems and sneaks them into his locker, his pants pocket (while he's in gym class), even his bedroom window, in her efforts to win him back. Zoe's best friends Julia and Shannon discourage her and tell her she's acting crazy, but she can't help herself. In an effort to preserve what's left of Zoe's dignity, Shannon and Julia devise Plan B: make Henry jealous. It's a plan that works, but maybe doesn't work exactly as intended.... Zoe, by all accounts, has been completely wrapped up in Henry since hey started dating, to the exclusion of her own friends and interests, and now that he's extricated himself from her life, Zoe has trouble coping with this loss of identity. It's a common story and realistically told--one can't help but have sympathy for Zoe, despite her whining and desperate behavior. Her friends are one-dimensional and Zoe is the center of everyone's lives: Shannon offers advice on moving on, Julia encourages Zoe to get back to the things she enjoyed, and her friend Sam's support amounts to his suggestions that he would be an excellent boyfriend now that Zoe is single again. The use of the present tense in writing forces the story to be more immediate than the plot warrants, and while there's hope for Zoe a month post-breakup, the characters never really change or gain much perspective. Some grammatical, syntax, and punctuation errors distract from the writing, though these, hopefully, will be fixed before publication. An okay book, but not a necessary one. I've read two other books by Kerry Cohen that I enjoyed, and I can say the same about this book too, for sure. It follows the narrator, Zoe through the first 31 days after her first breakup and the crazy things she does to get her ex to notice her, all in hopes he'll want to get back together. And in the end, she finds herself again and what it means to stay true to the one person who means the most. A quick, short read, I definitely recommend this book. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
