I would have given this book 5 stars if Henry wouldn’t have started at some point acting like an emo jerk (no offence to emo or jerk people). The cute one, the funny one, the one that makes you laugh until you choke, the one that you want to give breathless hugs, the one that you want to kiss for being so sweet, the one with a “take me home” sign on his forehead. “I didn’t know crushing on a guy would require me to up my calorie intake.”įor about 2/3 of the story (more or less) he was the best character ever. And sometimes we don’t realize what we have until it’s too late, but don’t we all deserve another chance? don’t we all? Maybe this is another thing that made her ‘real’ (as a character can be).

She didn’t just wait for him, crying in a corner (even though the guy of her choice was not the best she could have found, and also there were plenty of tears involved here and there).Īs a side note I’ve also noticed that she seems to like (and want) mostly the things that she doesn’t have, but. And I was like: “finally a girl with something between her ears that doesn’t spend all her time moping around”. She was like: “ok, you don’t want me, it is not the end of the world, there are plenty of fish in the sea, I’ll find someone else (in fact I have someone else), let’s see how you like it”. I liked in a way how Jordan reacted when the guy she liked didn’t make a move. She had this optimism like an aura around her words, and even with all her insecurities and her problems she seemed to know where she was standing and she seemed to be enjoying her life. Jordan As I found out, Jordan is the girl, and it’s funny because before reading the book I was so sure that Jordan was the guy in the story, LOL.Īnyways, I really liked her. In fact it’s what caught my attention back in April when I saw it for the first time.Īlso there’s something about that line between the boy and the girl – maybe it’s not supposed to have a meaning, but the book is all about crossing the line – with the guy Jordan liked, with her friends, with her family, her choices and options, and so on. “When unrequited love is the most expensive thing on the menu, sometimes you settle for the daily special” I could have hugged them all and take them home, that’s how much I like them.

They filled my day with their jokes and their joy and for a moment, between laughs, they made me miss my old friends from high school. From Jordan and Henry, to JJ, Carter, Ty and the girls, and even the family members – they were all so great that I wished for them to be part of my life. This book was amazingly cute, and the characters too adorable for words. Ha-haa, what a fun way to spend the evening.
