Why/ how is this considered to be 'great' literature?
This book doesn't deserve one star. I don't condone emotional abuse, but I feel like the book does. There is very little indication that the relationship is 'wrong' or 'unhealthy' - but it is. You can go on ANY social media site and find very young (and easily impressionable) girls claiming that the relationship is 'sweet', and that the abuse 'doesn't matter' because he loves her. This is NOT the kind of message that we should be putting across. The book has been likened to 50 shades of Grey, and the plot line is patchy and weak at best. It's free on Wattpad, don't buy it. (Although I don't like how One Direction have been negatively portrayed in the Wattpad version).
