Amazing novel, it exceeded my expectations. I couldn't put it down and stayed up many nights just to finish it. I recomend it for anyone who has a hard time forgiving themselves and/or others. Best part was the realilistic ending and how relatable it was. *Sorry if my spelling is wrong.*

This is a great book about healing and forgiveness. It was such a great story, even though the book looks a little long, it's a very easy, quick read. It was an unexpected surprise that this book was as good as it was. Teens and adults of all ages should read this book! :)

This story has a satisfying ending with perfect timing, something very rare nowadays. It's a refreshing take on grief and the steps we take to finally forgive ourselves. Check out my full review: http://www.examiner.com/review/book-review-who-i-kissed-by-janet-gurtler
