Whoa those are freaking huge glasses. I still have this book in my bookshelf to read. I like reading about different opinions. I started it and the mother already annoyed the shit out of me in the first few pages. I don't know why I haven't read it yet.
I think I'm the only one that didn't like this book. It seemed full of cliches and the metaphors were so cheesy. The characters seemed inconsistent as well. Soo many chapters of the book were dedicated to Alex thinking of how much he liked Brittany, and how he would do anything for her. Then out of nowhere he's like, "I don't like her. This is a bet." I was like," Where did that come from?" Also, I normally like mush, but this was way over the top.
I just read it, & I adored it! I totally agree with you, I would not pick it up if it were not for the crazy amazing reviews everywhere. And the ABC family referral, I felt the same way. At some points it was predictable, but I wanted to read it anyways :P
Great review! I haven't picked this book up yet for the same reason! I'm like oh gawd, people are gonna think I'm one of THOSE girls. But, like you, I have only heard wonderful things about it so I'm gonna pick it up soon.
Oh my god I oved the cover! lmao................... This book was was good, I've read it twice... BUT there were some things he said and I was like -_________- A few lines in this book were A LIIIITLE too cheesy.
Lol!!!! i totally agree with you about the book. I was reading the squeal: Rules of Attraction, and an old woman on the bus asked me why I'm reading a self-help book! OMG :D
Yay, you've read Perfect Chemistry! I loved this book and I have the sequel/companion novel Rules of Attraction. And I agree, I wouldn't have picked this book up if I hadn't seen all of the good reviews. I couldn't bring this book to school because everyone would have picked on me XP
@VanillaTwilight346 Is the sequel any good? I mean, I've heard from a lot of people that it is... but I can't bring myself to read about Alex's brother. I don't know. I looooved Alex so much and Carlos is just whatever to me. I don't know if I would want to read it.
I read Perfect Chemistry a while ago, and since then I have picked up every single book that Simone Elkeles has written. They are all very good, and I really recommend her Paradise series (Leaving Paradise, and Return to Paradise). :)
Great review! I haven't read it yet, and I don't think I will... I have a TON of books to read and if this one is as predictable as it seems... Then it might just be a waste of time. But if its THAT good, maybe I will. Maybe
haha i agree about the cheesy cover thing, i have so many fantastic books that unfortunately i have to read indoors because of the cover. Ohh and thank the lord purchasing online lol.
Great review! You're totally right about this book too. You kinda know how everything is going to go, but you're okay with that because getting there is so awesome. It really proves that if written well, some "formula" stories never get old. :)
what is the lesson?
