As a self-diagnosed overachiever in high school, I had a feeling there were going to be a lot of cliches that were going to annoy me in this book. Luckily, that expectation was very wrong.
Solomon perfectly portrays two overachievers that have the same struggles as everyone else, and realize a little too late what they could have enjoyed had they not worried so much about school.
How they could have enjoyed a friendship and maybe more if school had not been their number one priority. From learning about Jewish culture to reading a character like me with a secret passion for writing, I loved every turn this book took.
I usually have a dislike for high school romances; I think they're basic and boring and overdone, but the story of Rowan and Neil and their complex story and personalities was a good refresher.
