Hopeless (Hopeless 1)

Product Information

The physical connection between Holder and Sky made it difficult to breathe; the moments of intense passion, emotion, feeling.

you know the type when one tear hasn't even rolled down your cheeks before another one is slipping out of your eyes? I found myself wanting to highlight almost every passage in it because the words were so beautiful and perfectly chosen. What prevented me from really enjoying Hopeless is not so much the YA genre or the predictability of the story, that the over use of tragic/traumatic events. All of our books are 100% brand new, unread and purchased directly from the publishers in bulk allowing us to pass the huge savings on to you!

If the author had just been brave enough to challenge the stereotype, to steer clear of the assumed negative correlation between sexuality and morality, then this could have been a very different and a much better book. Even though it's been 3 years since I've read this story - it still brought back all the same feels from the first time.

Hopeless was absolutely one of the best books I've read in 2012 and it's a book that will stay with me for very, very long time. Then much to her dismay Sky finds out her best friend Six will be spending senior year abroad in Italy in a foreign exchange student program. I simply adored the initial back and forth, playful banter between these two characters, and the way Sky was intent on remaining immune to Holder's charm.

When their hour is up, and the girl rushes off like Cinderella, Daniel tries to convince himself that what happened between them seemed perfect only because they were pretending it was. Hopeless ended so beautifully, in fact the last chapter was probably one of the best endings I've ever read. A chance encounter in the dark leads eighteen-year-old Daniel and the girl who stumbles across him to profess their love for each other. In the end though, I chose the former because I have more issues with this book than I've ever thought.
