I really really want to go and watch Say Anything right now! This book is like a tribute to it and it is one of my favorite movies! I'm such a sucker for the nerdy girl and the bad A boy. A book that captures the essence of high school love that becomes true love. I thought this book was a super sweet romance with lots of "butterflies in my stomache" moments. I just wish that the author could have cleaned up the language in it. If I was a sailor I would be blushing. I liked that the author would give you a scene from both Tobey and Sara's perspectives. It made the book cute because she definitely captured what a girl would be thinking and maybe what a guy would be thinking in certain scenarios. (I say maybe because I'm a female and don't know what the heck guys are thinking half of the time!) I'll leave you with my two favorite quotes!
"I'm thinking that it might actually be possible for things to work out sometimes. Definitely not everything and maybe not the way you imagined. But sometimes, when you least expect it, life surprises you."
"We're playing this old Bob Seger song called "Night Moves." It's a good song for us because the guitar and bass and drum parts are equally fierce. The song's all about being young and free and making out in your car with the girl you love. The things that matter in life."
