The writing style was great. I immediately got hooked up since the beginning. The story was very interesting. The plot, the scenery, the characters, etc are all very interesting.

Omg reading classic is such a fun reading. Especially books that set in real world. Because this book reminds me sm of the movie, Grease. The hair oil applying, always looking good, rowdy. Not only that but applying the hair oil makes me think that guys back in the days care sm of how they looked. And the fashion back then probably always applying hair oil. Omg this is why I need to read more classic.
