I picked this book at the library based on three factors - it was on a shelf of books nominated for a Beehive Book Award (best/favorite books in Utah), it had an interesting title, and good cover design. ( Hey, I was there with my three kids, I didn't exactly have the luxury of pouring over each book, deciding which to choose for myself.) When I got home, I read the inside jacket and wondered what I'd been thinking. A teen romance?!?! Jennifer Weiner gave it a glowing review?!?! I hate her books! I did eventually open it and was surprised. It wasn't terrible. It was fairly well written. I liked the device of one boy telling another his tragic love story remotely, and the characters were okay for a teen romance. However, it was a really slow read. I had to force myself to finish it. So, I didn't hate it but I won't rush to find another like it.
