The Darlings are Forever

review 1: The Darlings in Love is a book about three girls and how they go through three different types of relationships. The girls in the group are Natalya, Jane and Victoria. They call themselves the Darling because Jane's grandmother gave them that name. Also the book is set in New York City. Natalya met this boy named Colin a while ago that she had a crush on but ended up never seeing him again because he was siblings with the "mean girl" and she wasn't anymore. They end up talking again and once she starts to think he's really into her, he drops the biggest bomb on her: he has a girlfriend. Jane is just a whole other story. She was first in love with her drama teacher but since he wasn't there no more and that was ridiculous anyway, she ends up meeting some guy named Simon. Th... moreey end up dating for a bit for him to drop a bomb on her too: he's gay. Victoria is more of just a regular situation. She already has a boyfriend named Jack but she soon starts to realize she may be doing more for him than he is for her really. They soon have a fight and end up breaking up but not for long anyway. In the end, Natalya has to end what was going on with Colin because she's friends with his girlfriend and she doesn't want to ruin it for them. Jane is probably a bit more okay but since she was going through a lot at home with her mother and her new boyfriend, Simon ending up being gay wasn't much of a big deal to her afterwards. As for Victoria, in the end Jack came back to fix what happened and they ended getting back together.What I liked about the book was how it gave the aspect of three different relationships and not just one. Since it was more than one it could compare to more people that may be going through something like that too. What I didn't like was the endings for Natalya and Jane. Yes Victoria got her happy ending but what about the other Darlings? That was really the only thing that kind of bugged me a bit. If I had any questions for the author it would probably be to ask her if she was coming out with another book or not. I definitely would recommend this book because it's just a really good book. The chapters are short which makes you want to keep on to see what else could happen in like two pages and if anyone is really into romances and stuff like that tis is probably a good book to start with.
review 2: This book had shock every turn. Like Colin is dating another girl, Simon is gay, and Jack talking about his girlfriend behind her back! Natalya, Jane and Victoria had a bunch of exciting, sad moments but from this whole entire book I can sim up that the theme of this book is Boys come and go but best friends are forever. The girls realized this more towards the end of the book. On the text it stated " 'Talk about experiences making who you are' Natalya said ' I feel like I am who I am because of the two of you," This quote was when they was at the dinner party in the closet remembering Nana ( The one who mad them " The Darlings") and discussing about what happened to each of their love life. At the end Jack and Victoria continued dating and Simon and Jane was no more and as was Natalya and Colin but after listening to what her grandmother said one time before her death they finally learned the meaning. less
