Me a ENCANTADO.
Supero al otro libro de la autora "V is for Virgin". Los personajes me han encantado, mucho mejores que en la otra novela. La prosa de la autora me gusta, aunque es que sea una maravilla, pero queda muy bien con la temática de sus libros. La trama se me hizo original, es bastante diferente a lo que he leído antes.
La historia de amor entre Greyson y Avery me ha encantado, son muy diferentes, pero ninguno .-sobre todo Greyson- puede evitar lo que siente.
Esta autora me encanta, y ambos libros me han gustado muchísimo, creo que ha sido la autora revelación de este 2013 :)
Bueno, ya diré más en la reseña :D
Pero les repito que me ha encantado :D

Dieses Buch war kurzweilig und super unterhaltsam. Innerhalb von 2 Tagen konnte ich es dank des leichten, humorvollen Schreibstils durchsuchten. Die Handlung fand ich auch extrem cute, wenn auch an und an etwas unrealistisch. Mein Hauptkritikpunkt ist, dass es zu kurz und deshalb nicht 100%ig rund war. 100 Seiten mehr und einige Entwicklungen wären eventuell nachvollziehbarer gewesen und die Charaktere hätten mehr Tiefe gehabt. Außerdem waren mir einige Themen (Angststörung etc.) nicht gut genug aufgearbeitet und thematisiert.
Insgesamt bin ich trotzdem positiv überrascht

My dearest Francine recommended me this book and pushed me to read it for Epic Recs February. I decided to buy it for kindle when it was on sale, but what I didn't know was that you couldn't pay with paypal on amazon, and I don't own any other option to buy. So Francine got it for me, together with another kindle book (that I have yet to finish). So, thank you so much for that! Because I LOVED the book!
I had never read something from this author before, but since Francine is such a big fan, it didn't took long before I was pushed one of her books for Epic Recs. I wasn't disappointed. It was fluffy and contemporary and those two elements in books make me a happy noodle. I actually finished it the day I got it, the day after Valentines Day.
In The Avery Shaw Experiment, we follow Avery who has been heartbroken by her best friend Aiden. I kind of shipped them at first, but then Grayson appeared and right after that I fully shipped Grayson and Avery. (I also shipped Grayson a bit with me, but that's a whole different story). The story was funny and different and it made me happy, despite the fact that Avery was heartbroken.
Knowing that this story was so good, I might end up reading more of Kelly Oram's books when I get the chance! I loved her writing as it was easy to understand it and I adored how I was right in the story after just reading the first few pages!
I highly recommend this book, as it is super cute and adorable. If you are a fan of contemporary and romance, this is definitely a book for you! It is something new and it is quirky and funny and oh so romantic. If you have the chance, pick this novel up, you won't regret it!

Cuando leí este libro por primera vez me gustó mucho, pero ahora que vuelvo a él puedo notar algunos agujeros en la trama y ciertas cosas que creo que hicieron falta.
El personaje de Avery puede llegar a ser bastante frustrante, pero creo que su actitud puede llegar a ser comprensible si tenemos en cuenta sus problemas de salud mental.
Grayson no es tan de ensueño como lo recordaba, pero es un protagonista divertido, dulce, considerado e interesante.
Al principio de la historia historia sinte que hay cositas que pasan demasiado rápido.
Hay algunas cosas en este libro que me hacen pensar que pudo haber sido el primero o uno de los primeros de la autora porque hay ciertas cosas que parecen errores de principiante. Por ejemplo, está narrado en primera persona y la protagonista se pasa diciendo que se puso roja. ¿Cómo se supune que ella sabe eso si no puede verse a sí misma? No es lo único que se siente un poco raro con la narración y son cositas que me sacan un poco de la experiencia.
El libro es entretenido, divertido y un poco tierno. Lo recomiendo si quieren una lectura ligera.
PD. Fuck you, Aiden.

I just finished reading this book for the fifth time. This is the perfect book to lift your spirits but it also has some deeper moments. It has you laughing out loud and in tears. Definitely a few small problems, but overall I love this book!

Okay fine, I'll do it already! You're now on my autobuy-list Kelly. In the next few days I'll probably devour all your other books because I just know I'll love them. This is the second book of yours I've read and the second to take a place among my all-time-favorites. Happy now? Yeah? Me too!
The Avery Shaw Experiment about, duh, Avery Shaw. Avery's heart is shattered into a million pieces by her life-long best friend Aiden and she plans on dealing with this the only way she knows how: scientifically. Since Aiden has now ditched her for the science fair too, she comes up with a theory that a broken heart can be cured by going through the seven stages of grief. She even finds a new partner for this experiment in Grayson, Aiden's older brother. But she doesn't know that Grayson has an experiment of his own with Avery.
This is like one of those live action Disney Channel Original movies but better. Is it a bit predictable? Absolutely! Is the romance a bit cheesy? Yes! Are the characters stereotypes? Of course! Did I care about any of this? No way! I loved this book to bits. I loved the friendships, I loved the characters, I loved the romance and I loved the humor. I was laughing out loud a lot! Especially when the science club is helping Avery with tutoring Grayson in Physics. It's hilarious! I adore this book. I really do.
Oh my god there are so many characters I need to mention because I love them so much! There is Libby, Avery's awesome best friend. I loved her so much. She's very straight-forward and isn't afraid to let everyone know what she thinks. I loved the other 'science-geeks' too, but Libby the most. I loved the parents. I totally believed Avery and Aiden's moms being best friends. They're not in the book that much, but I did love them when they were. I loved Grayson's friends too! Can't forget those. Yeah in the end I did love Aiden too, even though he was a bit of an ass. I did get his bond with Avery though. Their moms met when they were pregnant, gave birth to both of them on the same day and they raised them together. You know birthday parties and everything. Avery and Aiden became best friends and while I do think that's cool, it was unhealthy too. So I actually was grateful for Aiden's stupidness because it was exactly what they both needed.
I love Avery so much. She grows a lot in this book and I'm so proud of her! I felt all the emotions as she went through the seven stages of grief and yes, Anger was the most fun to read. I loved her loyalty to Aiden even though he broke her heart. I loved her chemistry with Grayson and how he was the one to get her out of her shell and open her up to the world. Grayson is my new book boyfriend. For sure. I love him and I rooted for him and I want him.
The Avery Shaw experiment is another home run for Kelly Oram. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a fun, adorable and romantic read. I finished this one in one epic sitting and yes, my butt hurt in the end.
Que historia tan mona *.* Grayson es un cielo afdasfdgfasdfa http://alwaysinourownworld.blogspot.com.es/2013/06/the-avery-shaw-experiment.html
Avery Shaw, a girl who loves (as in real love) her best friend. He breaks her heart, and asks for more space.
That is the beginning of a new relationship between them. Avery is mostly denying it for a big part of the book. :)
I loved the science fair project. Science fair sounds like fun (wish we had that here). Using the 7 stages of grief, to get through her heartbreak and be totally fixed at the end. And who is going to help her? Well ofcourse our lovely, handsome Grayson. He will be making the tests/experiments, or as he calls them, dates.
The book is written in both Grayson's and Avery's perspective, switching every chapter. I at first didn't like Grayson that much, he seemed like a pervert and dirty, but in the end, I really liked him, he was cute, and funny and he tried everything he could to make Avery happy, to get her through the 7 stages.
Avery, was a really cute, geeky and quite innocent (maybe naive) girl. I really liked how she grew, first she only loved Aiden, only wanted him and felt guilty every time Grayson did something, but in the end, she got over Aiden and went for Grayson all the way. I was cheering for Grayson a lot in the book. Hoping Avery would just understand it, would just dump that rotten boy named Aiden (yes, I don't like Aiden, even after they made up).
This book had everything. Geeks, Science, Love, more Love, and 2 people who are just made for eachother. :)
Just would like to say this: I would recommend this book to everyone, it is a wonderful, sweet story.
Spoiler
She totally breaks down, and in her panic attack goes in the shower, were Grayson (ah Grayson, how great he is) is showering. In her panic she hugs and holds her to him, as soon as she regains her senses she notices he is naked (and has a hard-on, yes, details I didn't want to know).That is the beginning of a new relationship between them. Avery is mostly denying it for a big part of the book. :)
