And she might’ve found a way to fit in but it makes her feel guilty. That’s why Ryen turned out to be a bitchy cheerleader so that she can be popular because it makes high school bearable. But then I understand Ryen because really, who didn’t have a hard time in high school? I guess we all went through that phase when we felt all the insecurities inside and around us and we struggled to find our place in the crowd. He can be mean to Ryen but I think it’s his way of punishing Ryen for not being what she made him believe she is. Her characters are also not hard to sympathize with and I love how she can make grade A assholes like Misha that you can’t help but love anyway! I admit I had a hard time liking Ryen but Misha won me over. It’s no doubt Penelope Douglas can write a good NA and there’s something about her stories that’s compelling and intriguing. They are best friends and they feel like everything is okay as long as they write to each other. For seven years they write to each other, confiding and saying everything they can’t tell other people. They began writing to each other in fifth grade as part of a school project but even though it already ended, they continued writing their letters with a few conditions no social media, no pictures and no phone numbers. They’re my fucking songs and a part of me.” They’re where I first started to fall for her and need her. They’re her and me, kids just trying to figure themselves out and going through our growing pains. I like her books but I can’t bring myself to give them a higher rating because *shrugs* something is missing? Or is it too much? Either way, I enjoyed Punk 57 and I think Misha is the reason for the added. I don’t have a problem with the plot, it’s actually good, but then again I don’t know why I’m not giving it a higher rating! See? That’s my problem. Now with Punk 57, the characters felt real to me but Ryen sometimes irritated me, which is not a bad thing. It was okay but it could’ve been better, I think. With Bully, I really wanted to love it because I liked Tate but Jared confused me so much and there was something about the story that didn’t impress me. This is my second book from Penelope Douglas, the first was Bully which was disappointing, and I really think her books and I have a very strange relationship! I mean, I like her writing style and her characters but there’s just something about her stories that, I don’t know, doesn’t really get into me. He makes me happier, he makes me stronger, and he knows everything and still wants me. “He hurt me, and I hurt him, but shit happens and love doesn’t change.
