Recenzii

This is more than a love story.When We Collidedcarefully yet effortlessly puts mental illness in conversation with the beauty and struggle of adolescence. It is a book I wish could have written, but am so much better for having read.
Searingly honest, gut-wrenchingly authentic, and deeply romantic,When We Collidedis a gift of a novel. It tackles tough topics with nuance, and will make readers both laugh and cry, sometimes within the span of a page.
A five-star must-read romance for older teens (and up) that will challenge readers toward a better understanding of a too-often marginalized and stigmatized segment of the population,When We Collidedis an important book not only for this generation of teens, but those who've come before . . . and those who will come after.
An absolute tearjerker romance with a powerful message about weightier topics of grief and mental illness.
In sharp contrast to darker, more issue-driven YA books, this title keeps truer to the problems that most teens face. The protagonist's upbeat attitude will inspire readers to persevere even during the low points in life.
This is the teen world as it should be, full of good times and good friends to temper life's inevitable sorrows, big and small. Fans of Sarah Dessen and Deb Caletti will want to add Emery Lord to their summer reading list.
Lord offers a sweet story of love and loss. . . . The author is gentle with Paige as she struggles to redefine herself both in school and at home, as well as figure out who understands her best as she stumbles toward new romance.
Reads like an ode to unconditional love that will keep readers firmly believing in believing.
