This is one of the most beautiful and meaningful books that I have ever read, and trust me I've read A LOT. I love the fact that Hoover makes Sky a realistic teenager. She's sarcastic, has a temper, and always had me laughing out loud. Hopeless was entertaining and widely captivating with its unexpected plot twists but believable love story(for the most part). The amount of thought and heart that Hoover put into this book makes you want to cry. My only warnings are to beware of the cheesy love lines and be prepared to have so many mixed emotions your head spins, but in one of the most clarifying ways possible. Even though it's just a novel you truly feel like you learned and gained something by the end of this amazing story. This is my fourth book from Hoover and I can without a doubt say that I'm a HUGE fan and will for sure be reading others by her.
