El libro concluye con una frase que le dijo Luke a hasley al principio que se conocieron y era que "todos terminábamos igual en un boulevard de los sueños rotos"
Este libro me pareció muy interesante con una historia muy cautivadora y triste a la vez , creo que la relación de hasley y Luke era un amor lleno de esperanza y vida aunque no me gustó el final ya que el no merecía morir y siempre espere que ellos tuvieran su historia juntos ya que el quería mejorar por ella , si tendría que cambiarle algo al libro sería su final ya que como mencioné me entristeció mucho la muerte de el y quería que ellos fueran felices juntos y pudieran cumplir todos sus sueños y metas que habían acordado cumplir
Gracias por su visita espero que te haiga gustado el libro y si ya lo leiste dejamelo saber y dime tu opinión, nos leemos pronto
Hello, hive community, I'm very happy to have found a community where I can share my literary experience and today I want to share one of my favorite books called boulevard
The book is about a boy named Luke who had a somewhat complicated life because his father beat him and blamed him for his brother's death, which led the boy to turn to drugs. His life takes a complete turn when he meets Hasley Weigel, whom he sees as a ray of light and hope. They meet at school. Since she is a very clumsy girl, she arrives late to her first day of school and is not allowed to enter her assigned class. When she is not allowed to enter, she goes to the back of the school where the boy was sitting on some huge steps smoking a cigarette. Hasley becomes very curious and begins to climb, but as she advances, she stumbles and falls in front of him. That's when they describe the boy as a tall blond with blue eyes, but not just any kind of blue, but an electric blue with very dark circles under her eyes. scarves underneath, after the talk where the girl finds out that Luke knows her name because they shared a history class together but he being so quiet and her so entertaining never noticed it and he just puts out his cigarette and walks away without even telling her his name to which when he turns around she yells at him and tells him that he didn't tell her his name but he just turns to look at her and continues on his way
After that talk they continue seeing each other more often and little by little a friendship begins that for him meant something more since from the moment he saw her he felt attracted to her, Hasley ends up finding out her name from a friend, as the weeks go by they begin to have more trust and he shows her things he likes and shares a little of his musical tastes, but in this story Matthew enters Hasley's supposed crush, Luke and Hasley share a good connection and the girl feels something inside her which she does not understand and is that in reality her love for Matthew is already ending and being replaced by Luke, Matthew is captain of the basketball team and for some reason he had not noticed Hasley's existence in 2 years and suddenly he began to invite her to go out with her which confuses her a little and one day he invites her to a competition between schools and when he wins the game he asks her with a huge sign to be his girlfriend to which she accepts but feeling a little bad for Luke who looked at her from afar
As the days passed, Hasley and Luke continued to meet sometimes, with the passing of the weeks, Luke invites her to his house to show her something important and while they were there in the room, Luke puts on some music and invites her to dance. In the middle of their dance, without thinking, they kiss while one of the boy's favorite bands was playing. After that, she accidentally breaks a lamp and he leaves the room to what she thinks was because of what he had broken. After that, they don't meet again for a few days since he doesn't show up to school. When she returns, she notices that he has some bruises and since they had already talked about it, she knew it was abuse from his father. He tells her that it hadn't bothered him that he accidentally broke the lamp and that he only went out to look for something to clean the floor
As the weeks go by Hasley realizes that her relationship with Mathew was not working because she had betrayed him with Luke and one day while they are in the library Luke steals a kiss from her which would have consequences, that same night Luke goes to see Hasley at her house and she tells him that they can not continue like this and that she is going to break up with Matt to which he tells her to call him on the phone right now and break up with him but she tells him that she prefers to do it in person and that she will break up with him the next day at that moment Luke receives a call and moves away a little to answer it and when he hangs up he tells Hasley that he has to go he gives her a soft kiss and leaves, the next day when Hasley arrives at school she notices that all eyes are on her and she does not know why and continues heading to her locker and when she opens it she notices an envelope inside that she had not put there and by some marks that her locker had she notices that it was forced to open it and when she checks the envelope she sees a photo of her and Luke kissing in the library and assumes that is why everyone They looked at her like that when she looks up she realizes that Matthew is running towards her and starts complaining to her in public, leaving her totally ridiculous in front of the entire school.

One day, Hasley finds out that he would have to go to where his brother was, his cousin tells her about this without knowing that she was not yet aware and one day Luke invites her to his house again and while they are in her room dancing and talking in tears, she asks him why he hadn't told her that she was leaving, to which he replies that he will only go to rehab for a year because he doesn't want her to be the girlfriend of a drug addict and wants to be a better person for her. At the end of the conversation, they start kissing and she decides to give herself to him. night
After That's why things happen between them, they go on dates, they share lovely moments together and a week before he has to leave he starts to prepare a surprise for her but the day that was supposed to surprise her while she was at school he receives a call where they tell him that Matthew had put up that whole facade that Hasley had been unfaithful to him to break up with her since he had been unfaithful to her before to which Luke comes out looking fierce and Hasley starts chasing him and Luke meets Matthew leaving school and they start to have a big fight in which Hasley gets in the way and they end up pushing her where she falls and hits her head getting up a little dizzy she doesn't notice that a car is coming towards her but Luke who made a promise to her that he would fall for her to block out her pain if he sees the car approaching and runs pushing Hasley and allowing the car to crash into him and the girl falls unconscious to the ground
When she wakes up she finds herself in a room where she sees her mother and her best friend Zav who had been fighting with her for a long time for what she had done to Matthew and for the relationship she had with Luke, the first thing the girl does is say "where is he" where is Luke to which her mother and best friend are frozen without knowing what to say and when she insists her mother tells her that he has been reported dead an hour and a half ago since the impact was too strong to which the girl bursts into tears and with her little strength she runs out of there in search of the blond who is lying on a stretcher covered when she discovers his face she collapses and begins to cry even more after that her mother tells her that she was the boy's psychologist and that he had progressed a lot and his desire to live was noticeable but unfortunately he gave his life for her after the boy's burial when Hasley meets André who was Luke's best friend and he tells her that it was her fault that she should not have called him to tell him about what Matthew had done, and she comforts him by saying that there's no point in blaming himself and that Luke wouldn't want him to do it. As time goes by, André gives a letter to the girl that Luke had made for him and would give to Hasley, along with 520 vinyl records. He tells her that on the day he asked her to be his girlfriend, he would give her that letter and the records.
The book concludes with a phrase that Luke said to Hasley at the beginning of their meeting, which was that "we all end up the same on a boulevard of broken dreams."
I found this book very interesting, with a very captivating and sad story at the same time. I think Hasley and Luke's relationship was a love full of hope and life, although I didn't like the ending because he didn't deserve to die. I always hoped they would have their story together because he wanted to improve for her. If I had to change anything about the book, it would be the ending. As I mentioned, his death saddened me greatly, and I wanted them to be happy together and fulfill all their dreams and goals they had agreed to achieve.
Thank you for visiting. I hope you liked the book. If you've already read it, let me know and tell me your opinion. See you soon.
