Grace Town is new to Henry's high school. Once seen, she isn't easily forgotten. When they are thrown together to be co-editors of the high school paper, so begins their story. Hearts will be cracked, love will be tested, and friendship will broken.

This is my first read by this author and I absolutely loved all the sarcastic wit and humor. I know, for some, it will be irritating and annoying but then ... teenagers so ... it fits and I laughed and enjoyed.

Even though this is essentially a sad book throughout it's refreshing to see the dark side of love done in a way that isn't an obsessive one.

Sometimes love stories aren't meant to be good ones. Sometimes they are meant to help the other person and sometimes they are just a blip in our lives and memories to be held deep within, even when painful.
