I Hate You, Fuller James Kindle Edition
I hate you, Fuller James.
I hate your floppy hair and your lopsided grin and those laughing blue eyes that always seem to be laughing at me.
I hate that you’re the most popular guy in school and I’m still the girl who sneezed and spit out her retainer on someone at a middle school dance. It’s just such a cliché.
I hate that I’m being forced to tutor you in English and keep it a secret from everyone. Because otherwise it might put our basketball team’s chances at winning State in jeopardy, and even though I hate you, I love basketball.
I hate that it seems like you’re keeping a secret from me…and that the more time we spend together, the less I feel like I’m on solid ground. Because I’m starting to realize there’s so much more to you than meets the eye. Underneath it all, you’re real.
But what I hate most is that I really don’t hate you at all.

It's clear from this opening scene that this is going to be an enemies to lovers story, but it's a delicious path they take to get there. Fuller comes to first appreciate Wren before realizing all those years of making her a punchline prevented him from seeing her inner beauty but the outer as well. Not only does she have legs for days, but eyes he could get lost in. Wren sees another side of Fuller when he stops by her house to pick up some notes. This is a side she can't fully grasp, but it forces her to realize there may be more to this this arrogant, cocky jerk than meets the eye. The more time they spend together, the more they both realized they've completely misjudged each other. If only Fuller hadn't made that stupid, regrettable bet.
Plot
Expertly plotted, most of the story follows a formula that isn't full of surprises, but the character's depth and breadth shine through in those moments when the inevitable unfolds. While the plot may not be original, the imaginary friends I made while reading this story react in original ways, bringing a deeper level of enjoyment to a lighthearted romance. The nod the author gives to some of the best romcoms ever, including Say Anything, only made this a tale nearer and dearer to my heart.
The Characters
Simply amazing. I have to remind myself they're not real, and that is the saddest part of this book. Fuller is fully-developed and has the most complete character arc, because frankly, he needs it more than he needs an A in AP Lit. His journey is both honest and organic as he realizes he's been far too shallow for too long. Wren is so relatable and though she has her own arc, it's not as significant as she transitions from the victim of bullying to someone who can hold her head high even through new humiliating events. The best part of the characterization is not only being able to see Wren and Fuller through the eyes of each other, since it's dual first-person point of view, but also in the eyes of their family members. Nothing humanizes someone more than seeing them among loved ones, who not only love them unconditionally, but absolutely won't take any of their crap.
Top Five Things I Loved About I HATE YOU FULLER JAMES
1. Fuller. He's perfectly imperfect, making him a flawed hero who's easy to love.
2. Wren. She's so complex and completely relatable. I love how she learns to stand up to her bullies.
3. Hudson. Fuller's younger brother is both hilarious and loyal. The interactions between Hudson and Fuller bring out the best of Fuller James.
4. Gramps. Wren's basketball loving grandfather is a breath of fresh air and helps show Wren's devotion to family in a way that would have been harder without him in it.
5. Angsty romance. Just enough angst without being over the top made this a total page-turner for me.
Bottom Line
A fun romance with amazing characters and a stellar supporting cast.
But there are some things I wasn’t fully on board with while reading. The first thing being, the way Fuller reacted with the bet. Not the beginning of the book, but the middle. I understood that he made mistakes and apologized in the end, though it felt odd that he treated everyone else so differently than Wren. Even towards the end he still behaved irrationally. I was also stressed while reading this book, which is just how I am sometimes while reading, but I mean I just couldn’t enjoy a happy, sweet moment. Every time something good would happen during Fuller’s POV, he’d just start thinking about the bet. Although it was realistic, he was grappling with a guilty conscience. I genuinely liked Wren though and enjoyed her.
Overall I’m giving it a 4/5 stars because it disappointed me more than I thought it would.
The characters are likeable and it's a fun, quick read but a little simplistic and predictable.

The references to pop-culture peppered in throughout are wonderful little nods too!
Well done and I can't wait to read more of your work!
Es un libro super bonito, super fácil de leer y que te engancha desde el principio, no puede parar de leerlo. Quiero un Fuller James en vida y quiero el libro en físico en español. Ojala tuviese segunda parte
I gave up on YA a few years ago after some, let’s say, ‘questionable’ experiences. Poorly written. Offensive to teenagers. Or, in some cases, I just felt like a bit of a pervert, to be honest.
But, after seeing this cover alone, I was instantly drawn to IHYFJ.
Then when I saw that it’s a modern retelling of one of my all-time favourite movies, She’s All That, not only did I feel extremely old, but I just knew I had to read it!
And I’m so glad I did!
I can’t wait to read more from this author, but more YA in general.
