“Thinking about history makes me wonder how I’ll fit into it one day, I guess. And you too. I kinda wish people still wrote like that. History, huh? Bet we could make some.” In preparation for the movie release, I really wanted to give this book a reread. The movie might not have been the shit, but this book is. Henry and Alex together are just the best couple ever. Their interactions just gave me the butterflies and I kind of stopped caring about the election and everything that went on apart from their story. And I just love how they kinda fall into their relationship without giving it much thought. Alex’s “coming out” was so comforting and just gave me so much hope that more of us are experiencing it like that. All the support they got when they were at the palace after shit hit the fan? It really made me cry all the way through the scene. Plus: We all know that the possibility of Texas being a democratic state are close to not existent, but let’s face it; It was a great ending and who knows? Maybe? Probably not, but maybe. It’s just a cute read, especially now in the summer. I was just really disappointed that I didn’t like the movie, especially because the actors in the interviews had so much chemistry.

Ich fands weder lustig noch süss, sondern einfach nur peinlich.

War einfach nicht das, was es versprochen hatte. Null Emotionen, kein Gefühl. Es ging nur um Körperliche Anziehung und Sex und danach LGBTQ Fanservice (was nicht negativ ist, aber der Anfang fing so RomCom mässig an und danach wurde es Propaganda… das mag ich nicht so. Egal in welchem Bereich) Wurde meiner Meinung nach dem Hype nicht gerecht. Ich fands weder lustig noch süss, sondern einfach nur peinlich. Hatte mir hier «banter» erhofft, weil dieses Geplänkel und hin und her zwischen den Figuren, diese Sticheleine, das mag ich eigentlich mega gerne, aber hier hats einfach gefehlt.
