Falling Together by Marisa de los Santos

3.0

I really wanted to like Falling Together more than I did. Not to say that it's a bad book, but whenever you compare it to her first book Love Walked In it doesn't quite measure up. That might not be a fair way to view a book but I couldn't help it. The story of three college friends who were once incredibly close but now are no longer in touch could have been an interesting premise. However, the reason for their "break-up" seemed quite silly. Pen was a difficult character to support because she seemed to be living in some sort of relationship dreamland where everybody stays. The character I ended up enjoying the most was the one most dislike by others in the book - Jason. While boorish he seemed the most real to me and I could understand him better. Even though it sounds like I didn't like the book, I actually felt it was good but not great. It did keep me interested and thinking about the characters even when I wasn't liking them.
