My review;
4 / 5 stars = liked it, was a nice read !
4 / 5 étoiles = J’ai bien aimé!
This story was quite a light read ! As always, I loved the dual point of view of the story; though I much more preffered Arthur’s. I appreciated alot how humoristic the story was, and how it included alot of our pop culture.
Working at a coffee shop myself, it was kinda cool how one of Dylan’s love interrest did aswell! I could picture all that was happening in the coffee shops into my own, leaving me thinking of this book while at work often. And omg, the dates with Ben and Arthur was super cute !!! Lead me into thinking of my owns I had with Alex *aherm*
I also appreciated alot how Arthur have no shame in saying he’s medicated, and some mentions of Dylan having panic attacks; The characters all felt real, having depths to them and going through all sorts of emotions.
Cette histoire était une lecture plutot légère ! Comme toujours, J’ai bien aimée le double point de vue du livre; malgrès que j’ai préférée celle d’Arthur. J’ai aussi appréciée comment l’histoire était humoristique et comportait beaucoup de notre culture populaire.
Comme je travaille dans un Café moi aussi, c’était cool qu’une des “prétendentes” de Dylan y travaille! Je pouvais m’imaginer les scenes qui s’y passait de cet environnement dans le mien, ce qui m’a poussée a penser beaucoup à ce livre lorsque je travaillais. Et oh mon dieu, les rendez-vous avec Ben et Arthur était adorables !!! Je ne pouvais pas resister a me rememorer les miennes avec Alex *aherm*
J’ai aussi beaucoup appreciée comment Arthur n’a aucun problème a dire qu’il est sous médication, et les mentions des attaques de paniques de Dylan; Les personnages m’ont tous semblé tellement réel, chacuns ayant sa propre profondeur et passant par une multitudes d’émotions.
I have forgotten my high school French but thanks to you, I recognize some words… So happy to see your bilingual reviewd
Ahh thats so nice to hear 🙂 my next review will be a bilingual one too, as im finally reading radio silence !!
I love that this one was realistic and reminded you of your job and some of your own dates – when a book is relatable it is all the more fun to hear about and read. I’m going to be buddy reading this one in January and I am sooo excitedddd 😀
Ohhh I hope you like it too !!
yeah, indeed ! As I was reading at some point I was in my head same as in the book ahaha
What If It’s Us was one of my most aniticpated reads of 2018 but I didn’t actually get a chance to read this. But after reading this review, I’m a little sad I didn’t read this 😀 I have heard this book has some good mental health rep and the characters are amazing, so reading your review has made me all the more confident about picking this up in 2019 <3
aww yay !! Hopefully you’ll like it !
