A Thousand Boy Kisses
A Thousand Boy Kisses | Tillie Cole
One kiss lasts a moment. But a thousand kisses can last a lifetime. One boy. One girl. A bond that is forged in an instant and cherished for a decade. A bond that neither time nor distance can break. A bond that will last forever. Or so they believe. When seventeen-year-old Rune Kristiansen returns from his native Norway to the sleepy town of Blossom Grove, Georgia, where he befriended Poppy Litchfield as a child, he has just one thing on his mind. Why did the girl who was one half of his soul, who promised to wait faithfully for his return, cut him off without a word of explanation? Runes heart was broken two years ago when Poppy fell silent. When he discovers the truth, he finds that the greatest heartache is yet to come. Standalone Young Adult Tearjerker Romance. For ages 14 and up.

I heard so much about this book. Everyone talking about how amazing it was and how it will break your heart. I try to like it, I really did but maybe I'm just too old for it. Maybe is more for a younger audience because the mom in me was just cringing all the time. It was basically a story about two 15 year old obssessed (in love) with each other. 😮‍💨

This book was beautiful. One boy and one girl. A bond forged from childhood and cherished thereafter. During teenage years they are separated, only to be reunited when the greatest heartache is yet to come. A range of great secondary characters that made the story even more unforgettable. A stand-alone, tear jerker that I read in two nights. The authors writing takes you on a beautiful journey which will leave you moved and inspired.
5⭐️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
A sweet, sappy and sad love story that was a little predictable but I still enjoyed. It was a fast read because I could skim or speed read through some parts. I didn't cry but did get emotional only at the end with Rune's dad.

I just finished it and it was pretty good, but also a bit sad. I had a feeling about what the twist was and I was right.

I‘ve been looking at this one and after watching a couple of reviews I had to get this one. Still using my Christmas blanket as I haven‘t had a chance to put it away after having to stay with my Mom for awhile and this was my nightly blanket. You need a good book to make you cry when you have a mom with dementia. #6 of 2023

I knew from chapter one that this book would be a tearjerker. Though I knew what would happen, I could not put the book down. What a bittersweet book. And my heart almost burst.

3⭐️ Poppy‘s grandmother sends her on an adventure to collect 1000 boy kisses. What follows is Poppy and Rune‘s love story. Although the story could be a little heavy handed on telling you they are soulmates, it did make me cry a few times. The last third of the book had some beautiful imagery and quotes but be sure to have a Kleenex near by

Reading for our mother daughter book club. Not a book I would pick for myself to read, and it‘s taking a lot for me to not bail at only page 70. I‘m committed though and maybe it‘ll get less sickly sweet??

TheHungryBookworms I couldn't go through with it. I bailed🤷‍♀️ 9mo

Super sweet, heartbreaking story. I wasn‘t expecting the epilogue! Poppy and Rune‘s story was a strong reminder of how precious life is and how grateful we should be for the relationships that make us feel loved and complete.

Poppy and Rune. The childhood sweethearts. Their tale was so beautiful that it hurts.

This book taught me that age doesn‘t define the weight of love

I didn‘t want their story to end. But then again, “something so beautiful can never last forever, shouldn‘t last forever. It stays for a brief moment in time to remind us how precious life is, before fading away just as quickly as it came”

You know its good when it‘s filled with sticky notes🙃🙃

I don't even want to do this review because I DNFed it. I was on page 249/355. Cliche to the extreme! The find love again only to lose it has been done so many times which I can appreciate. The possessiveness was unrealistic in this situation. If it was meant to be realistic, that was the most unhealthy relationship EVER. The amount of drilling that was done to get the fact that they were soul mates hurt my brain. This book I will not recommend.

TheHungryBookworms This!!! I thought I was going crazy! I was getting so annoyed w the soulmate talk and how they were with eachother. Thank you! 9mo

This is a love story between Rune Kristiansen and Poppy Litchfield. They have known and loved each other since they were 5.
Poppy is trying to have her special thousand boy kisses and fill her jar with them. This is an adventure which her grandmother had sent her on.
Rune had to move away for a couple of years, but when we comes back to his Poppy everything has changed.

Okay so this book broke me completely. I‘ve cried harder at other books but I cried so many times throughout this and I even had to put it down for two weeks at one stage. I love love love books that contain point of views from both main characters and Runes passages always shattered my heart. It‘s heartbreakingly beautiful and I‘ll praise this book over and over again.
