Review
...
Once again I find that for me Gayle Forman is a hit and miss author. With her If I Stay series I didn't like the first and loved the second. With this series I found the first one just ok and this one I loved.
This has led me to the conclusion that I prefer Gayle Formans writing when she's writing a male narrator.
What I loved about this book is that I found Willems character to be really likable, and his reactions to things felt honest and believable.
I enjoyed seeing things from his perspective and especially loved all of the travel aspects.
I thought there were some really good lines along the way, and I loved that we learnt more about Willem and his background and family.
The only thing that let this book down for me was the ending. It was cute and I sort of liked it, however I would have liked to of seen more. Perhaps a third book or even a novella.
Overall it's for me at least a much stronger book than the first and I highly recommended it.
