But for whom I’m sadder is Susannah: she’s an amazing character in the tv show, full of brightness and warmth; she’s the mother or aunt we all want and here… she just wasn’t. On the other hand, Jeremiah is an awful brother and I stand with that. Maybe a little less here, but I’ll give him time. Conrad, on the other hand, regrets letting Belly go. He puts Belly in a difficult position when he tells her he loves her. The thing that bother me the most was the girl, Belly, she was VERY annoying. I also just couldn't connect with the story, I mean all the book is about how much she loooooves Conrad (one of her mom's best friend's sons) and everything in her lifes revolves around Conrad.Plus, she was so mean to her mother!, and she kept thinking awful things about her mother and father. She was so snotty and whiny and urgh just overall annoying. I couldn't swallow her.

i won't be rereading, and the best punishment i can give my sister is making her read these anyway. Cavenaugh, Abby (June 16, 2022).

The show and book are two such incredibly different things that it seems like the show tries to fix the many, many issues that this book has, and I find that very funny. The show managed to have more plot than the books do, which is very rare for a show to do.
