She didnt slap xavier when he was being rude af at the beginning but slaps him when he is saying the three stupid words.

I had tears, I smiled and laughed and felt the anger that everyone was feeling throughout the entire book. Xav then beat Logan up but we don’t even get his POV so we don’t know how it managed to get this far. Finn and Xavier pulled a prank with stink bombs and got in trouble, Xav took the blame since it was his idea.And Vee is a strong heroine, even if she’s been living her life in her gifted little sister’s shadow for years. So I really wanted a closure from that part, they did talk and sort it out but her mom was back to be a bitch again, like can Aveena just be strong and stand up against her mom? He can text shit like this, but he couldn’t text Vee when Brie threatened him and left her hanging for days after he said he loved her and promised they would be in this together. He finds out that Vee is moving, she is sacrificing her dreams by becoming Ash’s full-time assistant. I honestly don’t know where to start from the beginning I was totally hooked I couldn’t put it down once I picked it up.

Brie just gave me a headache: her behaviour was so over the top and made no sense to me most of the time. i think that was my main problem with his decision because he had perfectly valid reasons but, if he told her why, she would have found a way to help him. I don't know why I haven’t discovered Eliah Greenwood before now, but I’m here for this kind of story telling! Aveena vented her frustrations to her teacher on a paper and then later realized that she forgot it in a poetry book. I loved reading their interactions and I was dying to see how they discovered the other person's identity.

She’s shy and yet honest, and sweet and sassy, and very understanding and perfect for Xav who saw the real her. I’m already invested in Finn and Dia’s story and that’s just from the masterful mystery Eliah created surrounding Xav and Vee’s best friends. Dear Love, I Hate you is also a bit of an enemies-to-lovers romance, but it doesn’t last the entire book. I mean sure you can have a bad side and geeky side, but please don’t make comments like ‘… would he ever fall in love with the nerd? Another thing that always bothers me about YA romances: the kids seem to have sex on the brain 24/7.

The pacing wasn’t perfect for me- and there is A LOT going on this story, some elements I wanted to know more about, but the connection between our main characters and their character arcs is so very captivating and beautifully rendered, that nothing else really mattered because I loved them so much. Aveena and Xavier connecting or reconnecting through anonymous notes truly added a level of intimacy to their relationship. As a matter of fact I would say that he only like the reflection of himself in her tear filled eyes. But then she admits she’s Love and lies about who Zac is, I wished she exposed him, he was standing there staring at her in fear.Es ist das allertollste Gefühl, wenn ein Buch zum Highlight wird, von dem man es nicht erwartet hätte😍! I’m sitting here waiting for explanations but Vee is making out with Xav to see if he’s still attracted to her.

The two MCs have quite a bit of distaste for one another in the beginning but that evaporates once they spend some time together. I remember I looked at my kindle one evening and saw the book but it didn't really register at first - then I freaked out! The author couldn’t sell the i-would-rather-stay-in-than-go-out attitude for the heroine and honestly it just made her kind of pathetic because we also have the “my sister gets more attention than me” plotline going on.I logged into to this account after years just to save the poor souls that might think reading this is a good idea. As Eliah is the new author to me, it can be said that I entered this book completely blindly without any expectations about her writing style and the way she creates the plot. I loved the twists Eliah would throw and though I saw few coming, it didn’t make the reading less enjoyable!

I love when the book is mainly the FMC’s POV but we really needed more chapters of the MMC’s POV since there were parts where we had to see what he was going through.
