A hilarious, snarky, and utterly addicting #ownvoices debut that explores friendship, sexual orientation, mental health, and falling in love (even if things might be falling apart around you). When a guy named Martin Nathaniel Munroe II texts you, it should be obvious who you're talking to. Except there's two of them (it's a long story), and Haley thinks she's talking to the one she doesn't hate. A question about a class project rapidly evolves into an all-consuming conversation. Haley finds that Martin is actually willing to listen to her weird facts and unusual obsessions, and Martin feels like Haley is the first person to really see who he is. Haley and Martin might be too awkward to hang out in real life, but over text, they're becoming addicted to each other. There's just one problem: Haley doesn't know who Martin is. And Martin doesn't know that Haley doesn't know. But they better figure it out fast before their meet-cute becomes an epic meet-disaster...… (plus d'informations)

A quick read. Interesting format. Very predictable. ( )

Finalmente l'ho finito! Mamma mia! Che agonia! Era da tantissimo tempo che non mi capitava di ritrovarmi così bloccata. Dopo essermi fermata la prima volta ho voluto sfidare la sorte e riprovare (complice il mio buon proposito del 2021 di riprendere in mano i libri DNF e finirli una volta per tutte!) e...non ho parole per descrivere la noia che ho sentito per tutto il tempo. Solitamente amo questo stile di scrittura, quei libri che usano sms, email o lettere per scrivere una storia, per raccontare lo sviluppo dei personaggi, per condividere delle emozioni. Li trovo curiosi e intriganti soprattutto immediati e spontanei mentre questo è stato fin da subito un mattone indigesto. Non esiste una creazione lineare di un mondo ben definito, una presentazione chiara dei personaggi, abbiamo semplicemente due compagni di classe e "amici" che si iniziano a scrivere via sms per questioni scolastiche e da lì olè messaggi su messaggi inutili e vuoti alla "Cosa fai? Come stai? Con chi hai litigato? Mi parli un po' di te?". Per me è stato come prendere in mano il telefono di uno sconosciuto e iniziare a leggere i messaggi che si scambia con un amico. Una cosa che inizialmente può incuriosire ma dopo tre secondi ti da per forza il tormento. Non conoscendo nessuno dei due ritrovarti a leggere degli affari amorosi di sconosciuti è tutt'altro che appassionante. Sentire questi due ragazzi che parlano di roba inutile, degli amici stronzi, delle amiche che prima stanno con uno e poi con l'altro, dei cugini fastidiosi ecc è un mattone nello stomaco...semplicemente: CHE PALLE! Se sommiamo il fatto che i personaggi già si conoscono essendo in classe assieme e parlano quindi dei loro compagni di classe e amici in comune dando per scontato che il mondo intero li conosca è come ritrovarsi a leggere una serie partendo dal secondo volume. Per tutto il tempo è come se si dovesse già conoscere la storia e i suoi protagonisti, come se ci fosse un fantomatico volume uno. Una storia che semplicemente annoia. Può forse piacere ai ragazzi più giovani ma è tutto così buttato a caso, con personaggi caratterizzati malissimo e forzatissimi che quel poco di simpatia o empatia sparisce in mezzo secondo. I personaggi dovrebbero essere profondi ma sono dei cliché ambulanti, la nerd un po' tsunderina ma dal cuore di panna e il tizio simpaticone ma anche profondo. Una lettura atroce e che mi sento di sconsigliare a chiunque. Ci sono libri molto più intensi e scritti meglio. Questo è semplicemente una perdita di tempo. Se non fosse stato per la trama accattivante e lo stile non lo avrei neanche considerato. Bocciato! ( )

Any book that references the Bene Gesserit when discussing acetaminophen's use in fending off existential dread earns extra points. Though, honestly, there were a number of things in this book that earned points: a case of mistaken identity that didn't make me cringe; a dialogue-only story that didn't leave me feeling as if most of the interesting and compelling bits were happening off-screen; a friendship (and eventual romance) that involved sharing difficult and very personal truths; compelling and very real characters.

But I think what I loved the most about this book was the way in which Lana Wood Johnson allowed us to read between the lines of Haley and Martin's conversations. I knew the exact moment Martin realized what was going on, knew when he made efforts to anchor their friendship in real life encounters, and while I wasn't quite sure what was going on with Haley's friends, I knew it was important and would eventually be revealed. Johnson did an excellent job showing us everything we needed to know without compromising the text-only structure...or straining her characters' behavior beyond credulity. An admirable, and highly enjoyable, feat! ( )

This book was a great read, especially because I was looking for something light to break my reading slump. The entire book was composed of text messages, which was an interesting, but not completely unexpected, twist for a YA novel. Because the story was told through text messages, the reader can easily become invested in the characters. It really felt like reading messages from a close friend. I hesitated to finish this book for a long time because I predicted an ending that I really wasn't looking forward to reading. However, the ending was a bit surprising and honestly I was very happy with it. I recommend this book to my fellow YA/contemporary romance lovers, to anyone looking for a fun read, and to anyone interested in this new style of writing. ( )

teen love story, told through text messages
a fun rom-com and a quick read. One character incidentally is an introvert with generalized anxiety, but this isn't talked about extensively (since it's something that comes out more through internal dialogue and can't be shown as well through texts shared with other people). ( )
