Eu não saio da minha casa há mais de um ano. Meu médico diz que é ansiedade social, mas sei que as únicas coisas seguras são feitas de papel. Meu quarto é de papel. Meu mundo é de papel. Tudo fora é fogo. Tudo o que precisaria é uma faísca para eu explodir em chamas. Então eu fico onde estou. Onde nada pode me tocar.
Então minha mãe contrata um tutor. Jackson Esse garoto que eu tinha uma queda antes do mundo tornar-se muito aterrorizante para viver. A vida de Jackson é meu oposto, e eu posso dizer que ele tem segredos próprios. Mas ele me faz sentir coisas. Me faz querer tentar de novo. Me faz querer ser corajosa. Eu quase posso sentir o gosto do mundo exterior. Mas muitas coisas podem dar errado, e tudo o que é preciso é uma faísca para tudo que eu amo desaparecer...

"Amante de quadrinhos e jogadora de xadrez. Legal. Que outras coisas incríveis você nasceu para ser?"

Zoe is sure that she was born to be many things in real life, but none of them will come true thanks to her panic to leave her home. Confined to her penthouse, she spends her days counting footsteps, doing origami and playing chess at online game Chess Challenge where she met a certain blackknight who accompanies her on her "what if" journey. Between confessions and importants moves, she creates a parallel life for herself.

Her family even worried about her situation supports her in everything from hiring psychologists to replenishing her paper stock. When her mother decides to hire a tutor and this tutor ends up being her crush, she will have a new perspective on life when she realizes how she can be stronger than she thinks she is. She will find in Jackson a safe haven and a strong love capable of shaking her life controlled by fear.

Jackson is a struggling boy who dreams of fulfilling his mother's wish and going to college. With all possible effort with condition of life not easy, he tries everything to avoid disapoint his mother. When he ends up hired to help Zoe in her math difficulty, he did not imagine that a new world would open up in front of him, provoking a revolution in his life as well.

I confess that I could not imagine what was waiting for me when I took this book, I really liked the synopsis and the cover, but it surprised me in such a strong way that I found myself immersed deeply in the plot, hoping that in the end everything would work out. It is a book with a different and very engaging plot, a great love story very well written and well tied up where two teenagers end up falling in love and finding a lot of strength within themselves.

Both Zoe and Jackson face their dilemmas with their head held high and in a very real and human way, I fell in love as the writer led the whole story showing that we need support, yes, at various moments in life, but that we also have to do things for us without depending on another person.

I am an incorrigible romantic and I loved the fact that the book had enough romance and overflowing with affection and cuteness, I spent much of the book sighing with the couple and the way they connected more and more with each encounter.

So So So Lovely!
