Guys, I read Flipped and I loved it.
#it’s very simple and yet the core is so good#it’s like the movie in that it’s a love story but the questions are about what kind of person you are#and who you want to be#I love that liking Juli is something Bryce admits only as he begins to realize how cowardly and cruel his dad is.#and how much he doesn’t want to be like his dad#and how it’s all intertwined with standing up to Garrett’s shallowness#and rejecting the social hierarchies of middle school lol#and I love that for Juli her struggle is to be consistent in her choices#and to try to turn away from Bryce if he IS actually as cowardly and cruel as he seems#she is not going to nurture something that is one-sided or based on an unreal image of a person!#she wants to be truthful above all else#but then I love that she doesn’t have to let go of Bryce#because he has chosen/is choosing to be something else#idk. It is a lot to me!#also I prefer the slightly less ambiguous ending of the movie#But I also didn’t totally mind the softness of the ‘let it hang in the air’ ending#because they are so young#I’m rambling but yeah.#flipped
