What do you think if you love somebody but you are not mean to be together?
What
do you feel if you are loved by someone but he hooks other women up?
What
do you do if you love somebody but you feel fool enough to get him?
Those are some questions in my head. In the
beginning of this book, you will feel warm-heart enough because the story is
quite sweet and memorable. Meet Dexter Mayhem, a gorgeous and rich man, and
also Emma Morley, a low-middle woman. This couple meet for the first time on
the night of their graduation.
But sadly, in the next day they have to say
bye-bye to another. But one thing that they remember and must do, one day,
every July 15th every year for about twenty years (1988-2006), they have
to meet each other to talk about the story of their own life. Well sometimes by
letters and a phone call too.
Overall about this book, emmm I rather
dislike about the middle till the last chapter of this story. Why? Because I
just don’t understand, if they both love each other, why don’t they get married
or at least together?
The second is, I just don’t like they way
Dexter and Emma spend the two decades in July 15th because Dexter is
busy having fun and making out to other women WHILE Emma is spending her life
in a misery. Well not fair, huh?
The last thing is the ending, I don’t know,
it seems like a flashback to twenty years ago where Dexter and Emma should
separate a day after a graduation. I just don’t get it.
