This book is about the first relationship of a girl, Dom, who's a senior in high school. She's never really had a bad crush before, so she spends most of her time hanging out with her best friend Amy, who's a lot more boy crazy that Dom is, and preparing to go premed after she graduates. But then she meets Wes.
Their relationship was realistic because it wasn't easy. Although Dom liked Wes from day one and, as we realize later, Wes liked Dom, they were too shy to reveal it, so they were "just friends" for a while, which was good but also really painful for Dom. And when they got together, the book was really realistic about what happens to your emotions and how awkward "hooking up" can be.
Eventually, college acceptance letters come, and Dom and Wes are faced with a choice....
Reminded me a lot of Judy Blume's Forever. It was very hard to put down. I loved it and recommend it to girls who are in love, or who are getting over being in love, and for boys who want to know how girls think! |
