Shape of My Heart (Sting song) - Wikipedia

Courtney doesn't quite realize how crazy and tragic Max's life and past were until she went to the funeral. Things change between them, for better or for worse, but it's not only Max that has a past that hurts Like I said, Max is the best part of this book. It would have been so cool to have had Max's perspective, instead of Courtney's - or maybe both.

I'm not always a fan of dual perspectives, but it would have worked in this series. Max seems like a player and a flirtatious, totally not serious guy, but he's really none of those things. Well, he is, but it's a front. His past is pretty rocky. I really felt for the guy.

  • Shape of My Heart Songtext.

With all that happened between him and his father, I think it was brave to go back for his grandfather's funeral, even if it was his grandfather. Max is actually the sweetest guy. He bared it all for Courtney, left nothing up for interpretation, put it all on the line. It actually surprised me how honest and open and forthcoming he was - most guys that SEEM like him the front, the surface play the game and string the girl along, without telling her how he feels. But Max is very open and honest. I didn't like Courtney initially in the series - she was okay, but I didn't really connect with her.

I still don't really connect with her, but I at least like her. She has an interesting past as well - with the dead ex-boyfriend who seemed to be her soul mate, and parents like hers In terms of the typical New Adult contemporary romance angst and cliches and tropes, there definitely were some in this book - Max's past was definitely trope-y and almost cliche, in terms of an NA novel, but not to the point where I was like, really?! And Courtney wasn't your typical female protagonist - she was a lot tougher and more adventurous than most. No blushing virgin or timid girl, paired with a sex god male protagonist.

I like the progression of the character development in both Courtney and Max. Obviously it's more clear when it comes to Courtney's development, since this book is written in her first person perspective. She really changes, as she lets go of her dead boyfriend and opens up to Max. Max, on the other hand, finally lets himself be happy with a girl he cares about, finally makes peace with his brother. Both Max and Courtney overcome a lot in this book. The romance is really sweet. Well, sweet might not be the best way to describe the fiery chemistry between Courtney and Max, but the relationship itself and its progression is sweet.

I loved seeing Max and Courtney go beyond friendship and make things work as a couple. They are the cutest! The story is pretty engrossing - I was never disinterested, and wanted to know what Courtney would do next. There were some plot points that I originally thought were random and just randomly thrown in there, but as I kept reading, I saw how they fit in the story. The climax revolved around the two protagonists and their relationship, but it worked, especially with how it related to Courtney and her home life.

The ending is great! Aguirre includes an epilogue of six years later, which is both awesome and bittersweet, since this is the last novel in the series.

The Shape of My Heart

What I Did Not Like: I'm so meh about Courtney, honestly. I mean, I like her more than I did previously in the series, and I like her and Max together, but her character is so questionable sometimes. I can't go into detail because that would totally ruin things for people, but like, why would she stoop to such a level, with her parents? If she thinks she's so independent? Maybe it's so hard for me to see because I'm a lot like Max, in which I work for everything I have.

Something about Courtney just doesn't sit well with me. Would I Recommend It: If you've enjoyed the first two books, definitely give this one a shot! This is a good New Adult contemporary romance series - as far as NA contemporary romance goes. Says the girl that generally hates New Adult contemporary romance! A series well-written, Aguirre! I can't say that I usually enjoy NA contemporary romance novels, but your series is definitely worth reading! I loved so many things about this friends-to-lovers new adult romance between roommates Courtney, a purple-haired bi girl from a wealthy Jewish family, and Max, a formerly homeless mechanic working his way through college.

The banter between these two is amazingly funny. Found family is one of my favorite tropes, and theirs is lovely and diverse. Courtney and Max fall for each other for all the right reasons, and their reactions to the obstacles that come up seem age-appropriate for college stud I loved so many things about this friends-to-lovers new adult romance between roommates Courtney, a purple-haired bi girl from a wealthy Jewish family, and Max, a formerly homeless mechanic working his way through college. Courtney and Max fall for each other for all the right reasons, and their reactions to the obstacles that come up seem age-appropriate for college students without being immature.

I adored the epilogue, too, which takes place years after the book. Totally satisfying HEA, which is what I read romance for! I felt like I was reading a series of novellas about these characters that each had their own arc, rather than one book with its own long arc. But if you can work with that, the spark between these two and their dialogue is well worth it. Max's mother was from Paraguay. Her death in his early childhood means he wasn't connected to her culture, and we aren't told whether he thinks of himself as Latino, but his background does affect his experience, at least with Courtney's family.

Courtney has always been attracted to her friend and roommate Max but they never crossed that line from friends to something more. That is until Max ask Courtney to accompany him to his grandfather funeral. Max and Courtney soon found themselves being friends to lovers. As much as I love the friends to lovers stories, personally it developed so fast for my liking.

See a Problem?

On the road, Max let Courtney into his past, secrets, and family problems. Courtney was also dealing with a past and issues with her family. She had experienced the loss of her soul mate, Eli when she was Slowly, together Max and Courtney were able to mend their broken past and found comfort and love in each other. Together their broken pieces shaped who they are and slowly began to heal and become whole. The Shape of My Heart is a enjoyable read but I did not fully love it. It was sweet, romantic and sexy but the long drawn angst and drama was a bit too much for me. As for the epilogue, I loved it..

Overall, The Shape of My Heart was a touching and enjoyable coming of age read!! The Shape of My Heart is the third and final book in Ann Aguirre's 2B Trilogy, and, while still full of swoons, is ultimately my least favorite. I've been looking forward to reading Max's story ever since meeting him in I Want It That Way , which is part of the reason I would have loved this book to be from his perspective. The other reason is that it was very difficult for me to connect with the main character Courtney.

She's missing the warmth that I found so inviting and relatable in Nadia and The Shape of My Heart is the third and final book in Ann Aguirre's 2B Trilogy, and, while still full of swoons, is ultimately my least favorite. She's missing the warmth that I found so inviting and relatable in Nadia and Lauren, and I felt like the author was trying too hard to make her character stand out. Courtney isn't classically pretty, Courtney likes to dress with an edge, Courtney is bisexual, Courtney is the opposite of a blushing virgin. This is, I think, supposed to be refreshing in a sea of interchangeable NA heroines, but mostly I found it forced.

I was missing that emotional connection to her. Otherwise, Max really does bring the swoon, and I enjoyed the trajectory of their romance. The trilogy follows three roommates - Nadia, Lauren, and Max - as they traverse college, friendship, and love, and we see how they move in and out of each others' lives and grow into the people they want to be.

We learn from the very first book that Max is good looking and laid back and definitely a lady's man. He has a series of one night stands and doesn't take things too seriously. When Lauren moves out and Courtney moves in, this is certainly her opinion of him, though she also senses that there's more than meets the eye.

They become good friends, and Courtney even agrees to accompany Max to his grandfather's funeral. This trip ends up becoming the catalyst for Courtney viewing Max in a whole new light and for their romance to take off as fast as Max's motorcycle can carry them. I've already talked a little bit about Courtney. There were moments I certainly liked her, especially for the way she constantly stood up for Max and was willing to be his biggest champion. She's very fierce and doesn't care too much about what others think of her.

One thing I found interesting is that she has conversations in her head with her dead ex-boyfriend. I thought this was handled very well, and I loved seeing her grow and ultimately let go. She's willing to sacrifice her comfort zone to love Max completely, and that definitely warmed my heart. I just wish I had found her narration as engaging as the first two books. There were quite a few moments when I was bored and wanting the story to move forward. I think, at the end of the day, I wouldn't be able to call her a 'best friend' like I could Nadia and Lauren, so it's impossible not to compare.

As for Max, he is every bit as sweet and sexy as Ann Aguirre's other two heroes in this trilogy. All three have this irresistible combination of being protective and slightly possessive but also vulnerable and sensitive. With his tattoos and motorcycle and overall unkempt appearance, Max may seem like a typical badass, but he has insecurities and an air of desperate longing that broke my heart. He has never been able to trust another person with his past and with his whole self, so seeing him open up to Courtney was so precious.

I also like that their romance is slightly of the 'ugly duckling' variety, in that Max sees nothing but beauty in Courtney, even if not everyone else agrees. They start out as best friends, which you can see in their easy banter and playfulness, but over the course of the book they both fall in love. Max has no trouble expressing how much he has grown to need Courtney, and it's very, very sexy.

There is the requisite separation that occurs near the end of the book. It left me slightly dissatisfied. Thankfully there's a heartwarming epilogue at the end that ties together all three books and leaves the reader feeling content. I don't think the 2B Trilogy is the angst-filled variety you usually find in NA, which is why I enjoyed it so much.

If you're looking for something that will probably be less dizzying but still full of swoon, be sure to check this series out. This review can also be found at Love at First Page. View all 6 comments. Aug 04, Nina rated it it was amazing. Bisexual, feminist, sex-positive, nerdy female MC without a "perfect" body and with the weirdest sense of humor ever? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! So tired of the stereotypical pretty girl who doesn't know she's pretty until a guy tells her so, and Courtney was such a breath of fresh air in the world of YA romance.

Ann Aguirre, please keep up this series! This was probably my least favorite of the entire series. Max and Courtney were extremely interesting characters who filtered through the previous two books - especially Max who you could just tell had more going on than what was projected. But when stripped down, it just seemed like the author wasn't quite sure how to portray them so she just kept layering on drama and more drama.

First there's Courtney - an openly bi character who recently broke up with her girlfriend and is trying to figure l This was probably my least favorite of the entire series. First there's Courtney - an openly bi character who recently broke up with her girlfriend and is trying to figure life out. We learn here that she comes from money with her parents paying for her school and sending her allowance, so basically she has never worked a day in her life. But luckily, she wasn't a spoiled princess. She rebelled against the perfect mold her parents tried to put her in and is just going through the motions until she graduates.

Then there's Max - the labeled playboy. I always knew there was more to him just based on how he felt about Lauren and here we see the stripped down version of him. We learn more about his family life and how he's been on his own since he was He's the exact opposite of Courtney background wise but the two click so well personality wise. What I liked was watching these two try to navigate as their feelings went from best friends to more. Also, his brother was adorable and I'm glad that we got to see as much of him as we did.

What I disliked was the constant drama. It was literally just one thing after another to where it became unbelievable that this many bad things would happen to two people in such a short amount of time. Another thing I didn't like was how sappy Max became. Once they revealed their feelings to each other, he was like the pathetic puppy who follows you around because it wants a home. I love puppies so this is in no way a dis to puppies, but you know the saying, right? It was all "I can't live without you" "You're my life now".

Please be your own person again, Max. Overall, it was cute but over dramatic. And we got to see how everyone's story plays out in the future, so that was a plus. I admit I was ambivalent when I first learned that the final book would focus on Max and Courtney. I should have known that Aguirre would change that quickly because she did the same for me in the second book. Courtney knows nothing will progress beyond friendship since she's not the typical beautiful-and-thin type that a hot guy like Max would go for.

Thankfully this "I'm not pretty enough" trope was not overdone, but it was getting close. Ultimately, Courtney has been my least favorite protagonist. While I felt a real connection with both Nadia and Lauren in the previous books, Courtney's consistent use of humor even during the most serious conversations became off-putting.

Yes, maybe it was her attempt to protect herself emotionally, but it also made me feel she lacked the warmth that I got from from Nadia and Lauren. I did like the fact that she was aware of her privilege and did her best to downplay it - even as she benefited from it. I mean, what's not to fall for? He's funny, handsome, hardworking, and, when he finally allows someone to get close to him, incredibly sweet and romantic. Learning about his background was heartbreaking. The struggle he'd endured to get to where he was made me want to applaud him and hug him at the same time. The guilt and pain he'd carried around, without unburdening himself on a single friend, broke my heart.

Once feelings were finally acknowledged and admitted. Max and Courtney together just made my heart happy. Navigating a relationship was new to both of them and watching them learn as they went along was adorable. Max, especially, seemed to blossom in this new relationship and it really showed how lonely he had been for so long. He had so much love to give and now that he had an outlet for all this emotion, he showered it all on Courtney.

I'm a sucker for a happy ending so, even when I know it's only been postponed and is still bound to happen, I'm emotionally crushed when a character I love is hurt and heartbroken. Knowing the love is still there but they're not together Even when I know that HEA is just pages away.

I've thoroughly enjoyed the 2B Trilogy and, while the first book remains my favorite, The Shape of My Heart was a good read, topped off by a truly feel-good epilogue that is a perfect wrap-up with all previous characters. Sep 20, Kelly rated it it was amazing Shelves: Courtney and Max slayed me. We got to know Max some in the previous books and he's come across as a player. They guy's a total sweetheart. Which isn't to say Courtney's not a sweetheart. The narrarator of the song is talking about God. God is personified as a "dealer" who casts out "cards"--or life situations--to players, or people.

A dealer wins no money, gains no respect, and holds either contempt or reverence. Some wonder how dealers can watch gamblers lose themselves and not be saddened or disgusted--it is by looking at the cards.

Navigation menu

There is no way to count cards when using multiple decks at a casino--you simply cannot know how many Jacks have gone by before you arrived--dealers focus on the cards, not on the faces and the sacred geometry of chance is the odds of the game played. The hidden law of a probable outcome is the fact that the house always wins: God is looking for the why in what people do with what their given. Ever since Adam and Eve--nothing is enough, not even the Garden of Eden. I am going by the Christian lore because that is what is most easily identified with the lyrics.

People want more and more--consumerism is King, Fashion models are crowned Queens, the Jack refers to the everyday "Joe" "Jack" is also used to mean the average man. Chance has no geometry--it's a mixed metaphor. Geometry can be graphed, chance has no shape--it is not a figure, and the belief in it is a matter of opinion. Therefore, God is looking for the hidden law of a probable outcome: When will they ever learn? The Spades are the swords of a soldier has a dual meaning. First, calling a spade a spade originally was defined as being direct when speaking one's mind to another.

This can often turn into confrontation, so most of society is passive-aggressive, and expects others to "take a hint. The Second meaning is a racial slur against black people in this country that was coined in this too, reflects an aspect of human nature that many Jacks have--whether it's about race, ethnicity, socioeconomic class, etc. The Clubs are weapons of war. He wrote this song, he is the witness, the listeners make him rich, but he is trying to change the way we view society and each other with this song.

He acknowledges his music makes him rich, but his heart is not a stone diamonds are a gemstone. Sting then speaks of himself to the audience, the people. He makes the music for the good of mankind--to entertain, to teach, to learn from the feedback on his work.

But what happens when a celebrity tells fans he loves them? Most think, "He doesn't even know me, how could he love me? He is just a man. I believe Sting is tying together the types of Jacks mentioned--The soldier spade , the elitists clubs are speaking--always. Preaching, criticizing, condeming, complimenting themselves. But as time moves on, they do not. It is impossible to speak and listen at the same time. And if they don't listen, they learn nothing. That is all I will say--it's far too broad a topic and this is long as shit already.

But the last new line, "those who fear are lost" refers to the fourth card class not mentioned. Sting references his own heart, but not that of a card. If you got through that, I thank you. I welcome comments--I wrote this in one draft so I may have left things out or misspoken, but I can't read it over--I'm tired. There was an error. I enjoyed your take on this incredibly deep song. Flag fael on December 09, So this guy's a philosopher, he's not playing for respect and he's not playing for money, he's just trying to figure out the law - there has to be some logic to it.

He's a poker player so it's not easy for him to express his emotions, in fact he doesn't express anything, he has a mask, and it's just one mask and it never changes. Flagged mamadiano on November 07, Indeed an interesting interpretation to the song…though I think you went far deeper with your meaning than what was actually intended for the song. Still that's the beauty of music…it's a lot like life…we take out of it what we each want to.
