Review: its a good book its just the back is ripped - I received the book with the back ripped??
Review: Holly Bourne brilliantly manages a tightrope walk of writing a lovestory that makes you feel all the feelings, while at the same time explicitly aiming to avoid lovestory clichés. With each lovestory cliché that DOES come up, there is a twist and turn you didn't necessarily see coming. And it is SO refreshing and IMPORTANT to read a book in that kind of genre that openly addresses everyday sexism and the everyday problems it brings with it, especially for young women trying to figure out their way with love, sex and the roles they want to play (muha, movie joke). There are other serious matters addressed in this book as well. And – without giving too much away – the ending really stuck with me. I had and still have to chew on that for a while ;) Thank you Holly!

It came out delivered in advance but I actually got it the next day. Packaging was a bit ripped on the outside but it's fine, the package wasn't damaged. Thank you!
