Seeing as this is Finding Normal's first review, I guess a lot is riding on it.First, I loved it. I went through so many emotions as I read it. I laughed, I wanted to cry, and at one point I was boiling mad. The fact that a book can make me change my emotions throughout left me feeling completely statisfied with my purchase.Emma has forever lacked a social life. You get to 'witness' her first crush, her first real bond, her first party, her first hangover, her first punishment. It's entertaining. My favorite character by far was Thomas, and I think the author felt highly of him aswell. I'm glad how they played out.There were some things that I was disappointed with. Some scenes were in the moment only to end and go onto the following day with the character reminiscing on what happened. I think it killed the mood. I wanted details IN the moment, not after it happened. I also felt some scenes were missing something or just lacking.(this is why I gave it 4 stars. but I lean more toward 4.5)But honestly, the storyline just makes up for it. One particular incident I did not see coming at all.Without giving anything away, concluding the book, most stories would just seem to up and forgive. But the character did just what I was thinking, even if in the end there was instant forgiveness, but she dished it! If that makes any sense? I don't want to ruin anything.If you can afford .99, and enjoy teen romance. I suggest you give it a chance.
