I loved Sage's positivity and outlook on life. She has healthy beliefs and even though her past is scary and scarring as hell, I think it's amazing how she can find it in her to cheer up people who need it every day.
So we start off wonderfully, because the Post-It Princess is an intriguing concept and we're hooked right off the bat, waiting to know what's behind the happy exterior.
Shane and Sage were very sweet together, and the dynamics between their group of friends was awesome. It entailed a whole new level of relating to high-school life.
Ryan and Sage have been friends for a long time, and when for the first time, they fight, and Sage is quite hurt (with good reason), she goes through a stage where she feels lost, and... uncentered.
It's what happens when you go depending on someone so much, for so long. When that someone's gone; in this case Ryan, for Sage, she has to learn to do all these things on her own, and creating a new routine and way of living, that just doesn't include him anymore.
I like how even though the romance started a bit too fast, it slowed down enough to allow me to enjoy several things I could relate to, like feeling like a creeper when you've got a crush, and then wondering all the time what the hell is going through his head.
Also, non romance-related stuff, like how it's okay to be angry, and that sometimes you can't just bottle it up. And that doesn't make you a bad person.
It also doesn't make you a bad person to do bad things to people because of 'justified' reasons. It makes you a very, very misguided one.
A really great read that I enjoyed a lot! :3
