Quick Review

• I loved this book from the start and was laughing out loud right away.
• Hilarious, laugh out loud funny.
• The chapters switch off between the story being narrated from the perspectives of Dash and Lily.
• I immediately loved the juxtaposition between the Dash and Lily’s personalities.
• Wordplay is ingenious, light-hearted, and fun (especially Dash’s character)
• The story never lagged and is interesting throughout.

In Depth Review

This is a terrific and quick little read for the holiday season, for young adults and young-at-heart adults alike. The story is funny as fuck, and I love the well placed obscenities. I immediately fell in love with Dash’s character, who is charming, witty, sardonic, and playful.

i love the unique way that the characters court each other, it’s fun and cute. There are unique twists throughout the book that I did not see coming that keep the pages turning.

If I had to describe this book in two words?: smart and fun.

Audiobook Review

• There are two narrators, a female, Tara Sands (also voices for Pokémon) who reads the chapters in Lily’s voice, and a male, Ryan Gesell (also an actor) who reads the chapters in Dash’s voice. Both are American’s and narrate with an American accent.
• The book is not read too slowly, but at a good conversational pace.
• The narrators do an amazing job of bringing their characters to life, and also a terrific job of voicing the other characters in the story. I don’t care so much for Ryan’s impersonation of females, but I’m sure that’s a personal preference.
