The Book of Luke Book

[I'm not saying that what Emily did was right, but that doesn't mean it was specifically wrong either. Well, what I'm trying to say is that if I put myself in Emily's shoes, I would probably have done the same thing. She wanted to prove to her friends that she wasn't a goody-goody, and to do so, she just had to break a heart along the way (although I do wish that it wasn't Luke heart). I just wish that she realized her mistake in doing what she did before it was too late.

To me, it seemed as if this book kept me on my toes. I guess I was just waiting and waiting and waiting for Emily to give up and finally realize that SHE NEEDS TO TELL LUKE THE FREAKING TRUTH. SHE LOVES HIM, AND SHE KNOWS IT. SHE JUST THINKS THAT SOMETHING BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN. WELL GUESS WHAT, IF YOU DON'T FREAKING TELL HIM SOONER OR LATER, HE'LL JUST HATE YOU MORE. Phew. I got that off my chest. Good talk.

Anyway, I liked the way at the end that the author had them make up over a milkshake. It was so cute and adorable, and it just makes me want it so bad. I think I should stop reading these kinds of books; I'll want what the freaking characters have!

I guess I can say the only reason this book got four stars from me (I think I should make it 4.5 stars...) was because it was the cliched good-girl-falls-for-bad-boy and because the mother. Oh dear lord help me, Emily mother drove me up the freaking wall. Who does that to their child? I know she told Emily that it was for her own good and all that crap, but it was BS. She just wanted to own Emily the way she couldn't own her father. I know I flippin' hated the father for leaving Emily in the beginning, but after a while, I realized I would have done the same damn thing. The mom was crazy. Who makes their child be a goody-goody for their own good? I'm probably being totally unreasonable about this but...I just had to voice my opinion. (hide spoiler)]
