Real life's just not like that." it was ok. really liked the first hundred pages. it felt relatable and nice. the words spoke to ne at sone point. REALLY LOVE THE BOOKISH ELEMENT. but idk as the plot progresses, it also gets more draggy and i lost interest and yea..... "I have noticed that when things happen in one's imaginings, they never happen in one's life. So i'm curbing myself.Ah. This book was so much different to its blurb.

For most of the novel, the title distracted me, because it didnt seem there would ever be a happy ending, that Elle was far too cynical about love for it to
I have two books that have to be returned to the library within a day of each other. I was debating which one to pick up and because of my interest in the London Olympics - the British book won the contest but for me, did not make it into the medal round.I had a dickens of time (pun intended) trying to sympathize with the main character or even like her.
