A poignant and empowering teen novel of grief, unrequited love, and finding comfort in one's own skin. Aden isn't looking for love in her senior year. She's much more focused on things like getting a solo gig at Ike's and keeping her brother from illegal herbal recreation. But when Tate walks into Calculus class wearing a yarmulke and a grin, Aden's heart is gone in an instant. The two are swept up in a tantalizingly warm friendship, complete with long drives with epic soundtracks and deep talks about life, love, and spirituality. With Tate, Aden feels closer to her mom--and her mom's faith--than she has since her mother died years ago. Everyone else--even Aden's brother and her best friend--can see their connection, but does Tate? Navigating uncertain romance and the crises of those she loves, Aden must decide how she chooses to see herself and how to honor her mom's memory. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

There you go. If you’ve read the blurb, you’ll know the reason why I love it. Unrequited!!! The title can be quite misleading though. I was actually scared to start reading this (hence, the expired ebook) because of the word Calculus. It sounds too difficult and I sound too dumb. I’M TELLING YOU It is not all math-y! It’s not even math-y! I promise, the math will be buried after a few chapters and will only be re-called before the book ends. Now that I’m writing this review, I just feel like the title is not right for the story anymore.
Aside from being unrequited and little math, it also has a lot of stuff in it like
Swimming and art
Lacrosse and scholarship pressure (which reminds me of Teen Wolf!)
Drugs
Forbidden love (is that even love, that’s abuse!)
Teenage pregnancy
Plus size main character who needs to realize her worth
Parties
Family issues (their mom died and their dad couldn’t…)
Don’t even think that it’s too much. It isn’t! The book is mainly about change and finding ways so the characters did a lot of WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING mistakes all throughout the book, but just remember the title. That’s why it has those drugs and love/abus and teenage pregnancy, it talks about the changes in out life that we are not able to control. They are young and are happy or will be happy with who they are and who they are with, eventually.
The character I loved the most is ADEN! I just seem to get annoyed by her needy side but she’s always looking after her best friend and younger brother who both got involved in loads of dark things. I love that she knows how to love other people and loved her more the moment she started loving herself. I’m really happy with all her life choices, even the stupid ones.
I recommend this to EVERYONE! (
