i liked the score much more than the mistake. it felt a little more plot focused and the characters felt much more real. i thought allie was funny and lighthearted and i thought deans soft side really showed when he fell for allie. i thought they made for a great match. i loved that dean really cared and allie felt safe enough to call him for anything. i appreciated the pacing up until the end, which is typical of Kennedys writing. the ending was sudden and sad and the drama/breakup felt forced as a plot point.
