Many people like Jack Weyland, but I am not among them. If you do, however, you may like this book and I am glad for you. Me, on the other hand, I hated it! There are very few books I can say that about, but this one was mindless drivel! Not only did it not offer any real depth the story was contrived and completely beyond reality.

This is the one I liked the least of all the Jack Weyland books I read. Too far fetched but for sure I know the right date as to when I read it. I was in the hospital with an amsthma attack after my freshman year soccer try-outs.

You know, as cheesy as this book is, I just love it. I think I have read it at least a few times now, and I just get butterflies when I read and laugh at how silly this bosy is. It is a quick, fun read.

I am fine suspending reality, but this was a little too much even for me. It just wasn't very realistic. If I were her parents I wouldn't be very happy about this union.

I read most of Weylands books when I was in high school. Easy, fast reads. A lot of them have romance in them. Almost all have a LDS person in them- the author is LDS.

I read this as a teenager and thought it was a really cute romance book. I love Jack Weyland. He definitely knows how to write for the youth of the church.

A great book for LDS teens--my very favorite of all the Jack Weyland books. I found myself laughing outloud throughout most of the book.

The best part of "Jake" is the beginning. Jake is a television star who is rising to the top when he gets in a "train accident" and thinks he is dead. It makes for a really hilarious beginning, but as soon as he figures out where he is, things start getting serious. This book is my second-favorite Jack Weyland after "Emily", and I would recommend it.

This book had me literally cracking up. I was laughing so hard that tears were coming from my eyes. Normally Jack Weyland's books are realistic, rather heavy, and deal with real life, horrible problems. This book had his style, but it was funnier and lighter than most of his other ones ... I LOVED IT!! It's definitely one of my favorites by him.

This is one of my favorite books. It is another Jack Weyland so it has a great message. This book has a very funny twist that made me laugh out loud.
