My Thoughts: We are introduced to Eliza, Eliza's friends, Eliza's ex Cooper, Cooper's so called friends. I want to say that I liked Eliza. I even liked Cooper, even though he was supposedly a jerk. I didn't like Cooper's friends (well duh) and I thought Eliza's friends were annoying. First off, I want to point out that they left her throughout the book and if they were "real" friends they would have stuck by her through everything and not run off with the first guy they laid eyes upon.

I despised everything about it. The dumb-ass title. The dumb-ass cover. The dumb-ass characters. And especially the dumb-ass writing. I tend to cuss and rant when I hate a book, so if you are of delicate sensibilities or loved this book, I would advise against reading any further.

I hate the main character so freakin' much. Eliza (I forgot her name already, so I had to look it up) was on my characters-i-wanna-shoot shelf before I even finished the second chapter. Could she be anymore stupid? Seriously. She was whiny and had not a lick of common sense. And she had no balls. I laughed when she told Cooper he had no balls, when she was a puppet for the 318's. Have some pride, girl. Personally, I would tell them to go fuck themselves and let them post the notebook online. Who cares if everyone knows you are scared to sing karaoke? And she was all "the secrets didn't just concern me". So what if one of your best friends is getting booty-called, one of them is a tease, and you kissed your sister's ex-boyfriend? I hate them too, and you should have told them anyway.

I also hated all the other characters. Clarice (I think that's her name) and Marissa were horrible best friends. Not only were they as equally stupid as Eliza, they ditched her on various occasions for boys. And at the end Eliza was all like "true friends" and all that crap. I was like "Are we reading the same book here? Your friends are bitches. Dump them". Cooper was the only character that I didn't want to stab with a fork.

And the writing was completely horrible. I rolled my eyes so many times one of them fell out of its socket. It was written to seem like the thought process of Eliza. Eliza, being completely stupid, did not help. And every other word was "like" or "you know' or "omg". And when Eliza was excited about something EVERYTHING WAS PUT INTO CAPS. CAN YOU BE ANY MORE JUVENILE? I just hated it. Oh, so much.

The plot was also completely predictable and completely stupid. Everything you expect to happen, except the things that might be awesome (ninjas!), happens. And the title of the book is wrong. Not much was changed. Eliza still has the same fears, except now she is not as stupid as to write them in a notebook.

And Barnholdt must have been sponsored by Pandora or something, because she mentioned them at least five different times. Sheesh.

This book is not fun. It's not cute. It's not entertaining in the least. If I had a physical copy and not an ebook, this book would be used as lining for my brother's poopy rabbit cage. I would say to use it as toilet paper, but it's not good enough to wipe my ass. (less)

After reading Barnholdt's Two-way Street, I was excited to read One Night. It's about a girl who has her notebook stolen -- a notebook containing all of her "emotional fears" (her words, not mine). Some of these fears are admittedly shallow, but some, not so much. Her ex-boyfriend Cooper has done Something Horrible, which is part of the reason she's in this mess. She's blackmailed into acting out these fears, and shenanigans ensue.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! YAY FOR LAUREN BARNHOLDT!!

This was probably one of the most entertaining reads I have read all year. It was fun, imaginative, and basically the Holy Grail of YA chick-lit. (By the way, because I only knew about the book what I read on the inside flap, and I realized that the summary from Goodreads gives away pretty much the whole plot, I edited it a bit.)

So: THIS. WAS. AWESOME.

Throughout one night, they blackmail her into doing some of those things that she's been too afraid to do. The blackmail part: if she doesn't comply, they'll put the whole book up on the internet.

A truly fantastic, amusing read. I recomend this book to anyone who wants something that's not 'heavy' on the mind, light hearted and really is a feel good story.

The book has a light pace and follows one (Long)night with Eliza and her quest to get back her precious 'notebook' which she has written her fears in since she was in seventh grade.

The characters are easily liked, strong and easily imagined. The story runs smoothly with excitement, courage and a true sense of friendship.

REVIEW

One Night That Changes Everything could be called One Book That Does Everything Right. This little story about Eliza and her missing notebook is unique, fun, and full of surprises.

Eliza keeps a notebook that lists all the things she is afraid of doing, but plans to someday do. It’s sort of like a bucket list, but they are all things she is TERRIFIED of doing. Well, when her ex’s “friends” steal Eliza’s notebook, they make her do some of the things on her list. Can you even imagine!?! It’s...more

It's a light read, perfect for unwinding. I liked that it was set in one night and with that, basically written in real time.

It's a light read, perfect for unwinding. I liked that it was set in one night and with that, basically written in real time.

The plot wasn't trying too hard and hit pretty close to home, I think, in that this could have happened to anyone. Eliza got hurt due to the initiation of Cooper into a high school fraternity. She found out that he had been dating her in order to gain points, so that he could be part of the club. She in turn dumped him, as any sensible girl would do. The hook of this novel is that the guys had gotten hold of her notebook in which she had penned down her fears and were blackmailing her into facing her fears. I thought this premise was a promising on and while nothing of this sort has happened to me, I could relate.

What disappointed me though was Eliza's voice. Surely self-pitying would be part and parcel of one's response to such a plight. But it felt forced at some points and fairly repetitive. There is this point where she says there was only one way to respond, and that was to cry. While this may annoy some readers who expect strong protagonists, I thought this stayed true to the vulnerability she felt, knowing that that others now knew what she was scared of. I did think however that it was unnecessary to play upon that so much.

Also, there was this talk about about some secrets not being her own. Yet, even though these "secrets" were about her two best friends and her sister, they still were ultimately about Eliza and what Eliza had done or what her opinions were. She didn't approve the way either of her friends dealt with boys, and while she kept her opinion about Clarice from Clarice, she didn't hide her disproval of Jeremy from Marissa. Given the whole obsession about having to keep others' secrets too then, I was disappointed and left wanting for more, and not in a good way.

Given that Lauren Barnholdt chose to write from Eliza's perspective when Eliza's voice fell through for me, I could only give 3 stars even though I read the book in one sitting, not wanting to put it down.(less)

I can even remember reading the synopsis for this book and spiralling into book lust. So our MC Eliza has had her notebook stolen, y'know the notebook that she's written all her fears and secrets in. The notebook that is now in the possession of her stupid ex-boyfriend and his douche bag friends. Not only are they that mean that they stole the notebook in the first place, but now they have the cheek to start making her do everything she never ever wanted to do.

The premise for this book is like genius, because it's something that could happen to anyone. Oh heck, I bet it has happened to someone. Thats what I like about Barnholdt, she kind of has her own little spin on reality and instead of going for far fetched stories, she hits close to home with stories that have an authentic feel. That sadly is where my appreciation for the book ended. Firstly, if a guy stole my notebook I would so kick his ass, even if he was kind of cute and we'd hit quite a few bases together. I would go insane, even pulling hair and poking him in the eye would not be beneath me. I would *not* let him blackmail me into doing things I didn't want to do. Hell to the no, i'd just kick him in the crotch and demand my notebook back. Now obviously I understand why Eliza didn't do this, because then the book would've been like 10 pages long, but it still got me mad that she let some jerk guys boss her around.

So once the notebook was in the silly boys hands they start to text Eliza a list of instructions on where and when she should be to start the next humiliation. I thought these scenes would be hysterical, like maybe her list of "things i'm scared of" would be so imaginative and weird and most importantly make everyone feel oh so uncomfortable. I'm going to plant a big spoiler right here and say that if your ex-boyfriend is telling you you have to make out with some lameo dude you used to have a crush on way back when, then why the frack did you go out with this boy?! I wanted Eliza to fight back and be like "no, I will not do these silly things you unfortunate people, now be gone!" and she didn't! she was just like "yeah okay, so I used to have a crush on the guy, so what if people are pimping me out, i'll go make out with someone I don't even like anymore". On a side note, where were the parentals throughout the whole book. These teenagers were just running wild through Boston with no supervision.

I never really understood the attraction that Eliza held for Cooper. Maybe this was just me personally, but I couldn't get past the fact that he lied to her when they were dating and now he and his friends were blackmailing her. I so wanted her to show some self respect and tell him to frack off. I didn't even like the fact that she even spoke to him in a calm and polite way. I don't care that he may or may not have been forced into the nighttime activities by his friends. I didn't like him, even when he was nice, I still resented him. And it made me want to slap Eliza because she was such a lovely character but she just made all the wrong decisions.

So all in all, I didn't love this as much as I wanted to. I do think this will appeal to readers who love drama and facing your fears, even if they are a bit tame.(less)

In it, she'd been keeping a list of all the things she'd been afraid of doing. To get back at Eliza for posting half-truths about her ex-boyfriend online, they're now holding her notebook for ransom and forcing her to do things from her list over the course of a night, threatening to post her notebook online if she doesn't comply.

There wasn't a lot of depth to this novel, but that's fine; I didn't start reading expecting a ton of depth and it's nice to sometimes have a light, quick read. I felt as if this book was almost too fluffy, however. The writing style was cutesy and grew irritating, peppered with "you know"s and lists (ie, "because a) ..., b) ..., and c)...."). Also, it didn't feel as if any of the things Eliza was afraid of really made for an interesting story; none of her fears were huge revelations or other things she should have really been fearful of getting out. For example, she's forced to sing karaoke and ask some random guy at a club to dance. I kept thinking, "And... so?"

The characters were okay. Eliza's the main character and narrator, so I wanted to root for her from the start even though she was still a bit underdeveloped by the end of the book. Eliza's ex-boyfriend, Cooper, is the most likable of the bunch, as he's a mystery at first and seemingly keeps trying to win Eliza (and therefore the reader) back. He kept things interesting, not knowing what he was up to or what he was actually feeling. Eliza's two best friends who accompany her all night were rather lame, not actual characters but just supporting props to help propel the story forward with dialogue; neither of them had problems I really cared about or stood apart from one another, and they both seemed to disappear when convenient. I never understood their friendship because I never truly saw their friendship. Everyone just felt extremely immature, even when some of their conversations tried to reference more "mature" topics.

I thought the plot had the potential to be a lot of fun, and while it succeeded in some regards, it felt flat overall. There was no real spark or excitement when it came to performing the tasks in the book, even when I was willing to overlook how unbelievable certain parts were. The book is short but so much of it felt unnecessary and/or forced. I know the author can write well, as I've read (and enjoyed) at least one of her other books, but this particular book just failed to charm me. It's not terrible, but I think the word "meh" sums up my feelings quite well.(less)

Eliza Sellman was very self-conscious and shy about her body, and everything about her. When her dad was getting a job transfer, she started keeping a journal. The journal was about everything that she wanted to do in life that she was too afraid to do. Some of those things were posting pictures of herself in a bikini on facebook, singing karaoke in front of strangers, and telling her sister that she kissed her boyfriend when she was 12. She called this her purple notebook, and never showed anyone. When her and her boyfriend, Cooper, broke up, Eliza was mad. She posted something online about her ex, and that really got her in trouble. He wasn’t accepted to the college he wanted to go to... because of that post. After this, Eliza found out that when they were dating, it was just a stupid hazing technique of the “group” that Cooper was in. Cooper’s group found and took her purple notebook and blackmailed Eliza with it. Eliza was then forced to do all of the things in her notebook, or else the group would post it all over facebook and the internet. After she did some of those things, her sister was outraged at her, her friends had ditched her, and Cooper ended up helping her. Cooper came and went, because he wasn’t supposed to be helping her. Eliza ended up breaking into the house of the leader of Cooper’s group, and stealing the group’s notebook. The leader’s mom found her in the basement after she broke in, and then she told the leader. He wasn’t very happy, but they ended up trading the group’s book for her purple notebook. In the ending, everything went back to normal and Eliza’s life was so much better.
I think that this book was extremely good. It was very suspenseful and easy to get into. I like reading books about drama just so I can get out of the drama of Hall-Dale and into someone else’s problems. In this book, I felt like I was actually there. It was a very good book, and exceptionally easy to get into. At parts it was hard to understand, but it was good other than that. It was basically describing all of the drama in high school and middle school and exaggerating it. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes dramatic and suspenseful books.(less)
