I really enjoyed this but good lord did I find Zach creepy right from the get-go. I honestly don't think you were meant to feel this way since the writing eluded to him being an all-out sexy bookworm, but it didn't work for me. Dino, on the other hand, yup. I was all about that from the beginning. Yes please!
As far as the plot goes — loved it. Excellently paced and flowed wonderfully. The quotes used throughout were beautiful and inspirational too.
Is it one of my favourites? No. But was it a nice weekend read like good ol' Heat magazine said, yep. You don't have to think much about anything, just let it wash over you. That's probably why I really don't have all that much to say about it. Regardless, it was a quick, somewhat funny, and largely romantic novel centred around books — what more could you want?
