BEST. KASIE. BOOK. YET. ALL THE YESSSSES. I have major book hangover now. I haven't had this bad of one in a long time. This book was SO. EFFING. GOOD.

THE TENSION, GUYS. THE TENSION:
Guys, I cheated. I told myself I was going to finish The Raven Boys first, but nope. I got an email alert that this precious coming out and I lasted, errr, a little over 24 hours before I broke down and bought/read immediately.... And naturally I lost sleep and didn't stop for air until it was done.
I.am.not.joking.best.Kasie.book.yet. I am going through major withdrawals right now. This book Kasie gave me the trope I've been dying for her to use (the love-hate thing), and she added in a bonus one (anonymous letters, and who doesn't love the confusion and emotional turmoil that follows those). When I started it was easy to guess who would be the love interest the second he was introduced, just because if a character is mentioned a lot there is usually a reason. But yea, who cares if it's predictable? I was totally reading this baby for the tension, the beautiful TENSION that Kasie does oh-so-well. My only fault with her is that I always want more steamy moments and she keeps the romance very PG. But you know what? The tension is bloody divine so I forgive her.
>> (Seriously guys, you wondering why this is my favorite Kasie book, you know how much I adore love-hate stories)
My reaction every time a certain someone appeared on page (but really when you read you'll know, if you follow my reviews you will guess immediately because I have a very obvious "type" of love interest:

GAH. SO FREAKING GOOD. and I can't even write a halfway decent review because of all my rabid fangirlisms. And that flipping ending. The part where he reads her his part of letter when he confronts her. Dear, sweet lawd. Kasie seriously upped her game with this book guys. I expected this to be good, I mean, Kasie can't write a bad book, she just can't, but this was so much more. It beat out all her others for me. Go. Read it. It's worth it, and trust me, you want this book in your life. Quite possibly to make beautiful book babies with.

THE TENSION, GUYS. THE TENSION:
I can't make it stop.
Please don't let it stop.
You have me under your spell.
If you knew me as well.
You would make it stop.
I can't let it stop.

He couldn't.

"So you think I'm hot."
"Doesn't every girl?"
It surprised me when his cheeks turned a light shade of pink. I wasn't sure why that embarrassed him in any way. I was positive he already knew it. He ran one hand through his hair. Then he said, almost too quiet for me to hear, "You're not every girl."

the other ones besides You've Got Mail -are they books? that's totally one of my guilty weaknesses too, I need to know so I can go hunt down those books/movies! If you read this one I hope you love it!

Kasie always tones down the romance, I totally feel you. I want more schmexy YA times, and she always keeps it so light, but the tension made up for it for me.... though I'm totally with you, I wanted more <3

Josie wrote: "I also read it in one sitting, pretty sure I had a goofy grin on my face the entire time too. I freaking loved it! And I need more Kasie books! I've devoured everything she has written :)"
same!!!!!! I wish she released every day, it's too long waiting a year each time!

But I'm still on the lookout for more books with that kind of plot!

Ohhh, I will definitely keep an eye out if it goes back on Broadway and also those movies :) Yea, same, you see more books with that plot send them my way, the only other one I know about is Lying Out Loud <3


completely agree, thank you Alison:)))
