I went from beaming like a school girl to crying my eyes out in the car listening to Libby prom dress shopping. I giggled and blushed and gasped. I felt young again!
Lynn Painter created a true mosaic of a character in Libby. Her heart is so full and so hurt. I want to wrap her in cotton wool to protect her from the world but I also want to spread her wings and send her off to experience EVERYTHING. She’s a beautiful, complicated young woman who makes mistakes but, ultimately, means well, loves with her whole heart, and is just so good.
Wes is one of the most emotionally mature male main character I’ve ever read about and he is 18. Make it make sense. I don’t want to say he’s unrealistic but… men like this don’t exist, right? What an angel. Knowing when to tease and when to care, when to be playful and when to be serious, can be difficult for anyone, especially those with a naturally playful personality but, for a teenager, it’s truly refreshing to read a character like Wes. I hope everyone has a Wes. I hope all the Wes’ have a Wes.
Of course, this book is a love story to romcoms and I love that. The You’ve Got Mail appreciation, in particular, was everything. If you’re a romcom lover, you’ll love this. And you’ll also want to have a movie night every day for a year so there’s that.

This was an adorable teen romance that hit all the right places. Moments where I was giggling with excitement and others where I wanted to grab Lizzy and Wes’ shoulders and shake some sense into them!
The movies quoted and referenced throughout the book had me re-watching some of my favourite romcoms of the 90s.
