    If You Hate Me (Helena Hunting) Book Review

    So this book is about Beatrix who fell in love with the brother’s best friend (Tristan) when she was fourteen. Whom, over the time, became each other’s nemesis. And now Bea (Bea or Rix) is jobless and running away from her problematic roommates. Which is why she has to stay at his brother (Flip) and Tristan’s loft. They’re forced to live together (albeit temporarily), which is a recipe for falling in love. Right? Well, sure, BUT, there’s so much more depth as the pages go.
