Penelope is sixteen and has never been in love. So when handsome, charming Keats sweeps her off her feet, she can’t believe her luck. But then comes the gut wrenching, soul destroying realisation that happy endings don’t always last forever. Suffering from a broken heart, Penelope creates the Museum of Heartbreak, a collection of objects documenting the elation and devastation of first love, friendship and growing up.
Ok so, this is not a bad book. I did enjoy it a great deal but I have one or two complaints about it. It seems to me that Penelope and her best friend Audury fall out pretty quickly. All because Audury has a friend that Penelope doesn’t like. Ok it’s not the only reason, but it’s one of them. It seems a bit drastic to drop a friend because you don’t like the people they hang around with. (Unless they are doing something stupid and dangerous then drop them) And I have to admit, I’m not sure how I feel about the ending. It seems a bit abrupt. Apart from that, it is very good. It is also so easy to read, which is always nice. I really enjoyed the story, as well as the characters. I would definitely recommend it and I hope you enjoy it.
