“I had flipped.”
《Flipped》 is so classic that I used to appreciate the movie a long time ago. But, under our teachers’ recommendation, I have read the book 《Flipped》, which bring me deeper feeling and leave me a more profound impression.
This book tells the stories between Bryce Loski and Juli Baker. In Juli’s second grade, she met Bryce and totally flipped at the first sight for Bryce’s bule, dazzling eyes and even his whole person. Juli had heartfelt faith of three things that the large, old sycamore tree is holy; the eggs she laid by the chickens she reared in the backyard are the most hygienic; and she will kiss with Bryce one day. However, Bryce didn’t like Juli at all and set boundaries with her as much as possible. When the tree was about to be cut down because of the construction, Juli hoped Bryce would help her, but he didn’t. Having prejudice against that her eggs were unhygienic, so Bryce secretly dropped them. To learn that truth, Juli was very sad and began to reconsider the relationship with Bryce. After all, what could be more desperate than the things Juli considers a treasure to be guarded by life, but is regarded as dung by her loved one?
What is fortunate is that Bryce’s grandfather had a good impression on Juli. Following his grandfather's words, Bryce slowly knew the real Juli, and started pursuing her. In this book, Juli is a brave, naive and independent girl. I really like what Julie did when she realized that she should sacrifice her self-esteem to be loved.
The book ends here abruptly. From my personal perspective, there is nothing more appropriate and touching than the last sentence “Maybe it’s time to meet him in the proper light.” which contains possibilities that would start soon between Bryce Loski and Juli Baker. Finally, I’d like to quote the words in this book as conclusion that “Some of us get dipped in flat, some in satin, some in gloss. But every once in a while you find someone who's iridescent, and when you do, nothing will ever compare.”.
