Reread 
This is a very cute YA novel. I’ve read one other Morgan Matson novel before this (Since You’ve Been Gone) and loved it and this one was a great tie in. Andy and Clark are a likeable couple and the side characters are all well developed. I have read it once before in like 2016 when it first came out and hadn’t since, but I really like it. 

Crying Score: I got watery eyed at one part.

 This was so close to being a full 5 stars, but I felt like this was such a long book and it didn't need to be. The first half of this book was so so good. I loved the love interest, but had a problem with the main character and how she sometimes acted, especially near the end. I've had this book for a long time and I'm glad I finally read it.

While it started very slow, once I made it through the first half, it picked up a bit. I was satisfied with the ending and really enjoyed the character development!
