Take a Chance on Me by Jill Mansell

4.0

This was a fun, light read about changing over time and second chances. Cleo is convinced Johnny is going to be a serious issue in her life when he returns to town. For me, Cleo was the larger issue with her awkward, passive aggressive tendencies but she is, ultimately, a likeable person- she even helps out her school tormentor who appears not to have changed at all.
I enjoyed the relationship building that appeared when Cleo let her guard down and the fact that poor old Johnny sat through all of the weirdness with a smile.
Great book for a day at the beach or after work to make you smile.
