Love. Betrayal. Lies. Broken hearts. Shattered dreams. Revenge. Pressure. A girl my age can only take so much. But this is my life; my story. They always told me to believe. Believe and everything will come true. They lied. It's taken me a while. More than a while actually, to realize that life will never be a fairytale. That all those Disney princess movies were fake. Those movies lied, too. And now I'm here, with a broken heart and a shattered dream.

"Growing up around fairytales, Disney princesses and teen films, we are raised to believe that happy endings are always in store for us. But more often than not, reality sinks in, and the happy ending doesn't occur. Especially in high school. The main reason I liked this book so much was because it was so real. It was a love that was destined to crumble from the start, and yet, you kept pushing your luck. We've all been there. The late night texts from your crush waking you up to talk about nothing, the unexpected butterflies when you see him, the gross flaws he possess that you don't seem to notice, or the small things he does that turn you on. Most importantly, we learn that love truly is blind. We're unobservant to the world around us when our teenage love obsession is staring down at us with those big, brown, adorable eyes of theirs. And then when we wake up from this dream-like state that is a first love, we realize that he's not this perfect, older, mature man... but this boy."
