I wish i could give half stars here on goodreads like i can on other sites. I was on the fence between 3 and 4 stars. Everywhere that offers that half star, I gave this 3 1/2. This is a good book. It is well written, but it has been written so many times, and I have read it so many times. I will read more by this author.

The good:

-this author is very good at describing a scene. I feel like I just watched an episode of Dawson's Creek or Awkward.

-Toby is funny. I laughed out loud a couple of times while reading this.

-This wasn't the love at first sight type of story.

-The way the character's are written are spot on for their age. Thy don't

The downside (these are my dislikes so I won't call this “The bad”):

-The sex/lovey scenes felt too detailed and drawn out. I love a good sex scene, bt I don't need to know exactly where Toby's knee was placed. It felt more described then necessary.

-this book, like the sex scenes, seemed too drawn out for me, it is set over, a 2 year period.

-I knew exactly what was going to happen, before it happened. Like I said, this story has been told so many times.

I won this on goodreads.
