When Axi impulsively invites Robinson to come with her on an unplanned cross-country road trip, she breaks the rules ...more

When I read this the first time, it was called the Fault in Our Stars--and it was better.

So I think both Little, Brown and Kleenex need to get together to promote this book, tissues trust me you'll need them!
How can I put into words how brilliant, heart-breaking. emotionally devastating and amazingly fantastic this book is, I can't unless you experience this book for yourselves you just wont understand, it's so much more than those words, the thought that it's based on a real -life story from James Patterson's life makes it even more meaningful and heartfelt. ...more

Sigh. Seriously, James?? OK, I can almost forgive the complete and total ripoff of Fault in our Stars, as I am sure we will be seeing a lot of those in the upcoming months, but, that aside, the utter implausibility of this book made me slightly insane.

To begin...this entire whirlwind adventure took place in three weeks. The drove from Oregon to California, California to Vegas, Vegas to wherever the hell they were when they stopped in a hospital for a couple of days, hospital to New York, New York to Philly and, finally, Philly to some undisclosed location in the Carolinas. Right. Three weeks. With plenty of time to stop and camp in the Redwoods, explore Hollywood, hook up with a stripper in Vegas, land in the hospital...you know what, I can't even finish. But, let us not forget that at the end of three weeks...one of them is dead!!!

Another rather glaring plot point...holding up a state trooper at gun point?? Roughly two weeks before you are so weak you are dead?? You managed to turn his gun on him and lock him up in his trunk?? I can't.

The hospital trip. We are really expected to believe two minors can stroll on into a hospital, one of them clearly dying of cancer and they just take the in, no questions asked. Nobody is worried about insurance, parents, payment. And, clearly, this is the most ridiculous hospital in the worl...since you can just sneak out of ICU without anyone knowing. Fantastic.

Then, the 1,440 mile journey in a broken down truck seemed to happen overnight...no need for stops or anything. We just knocked that out in a night.

$1500 also managed to cover the cost for this entire trip. Apparently, gas is free in stolen vehicles. Again, fantastic.

Then the very dramatic death. It read like a lot of time was passing. Nope, turned out to just be a couple of days. We went from holding up a cop at gun point to death in like 10 days. I get that cancer moves fast, but...seriously??

Then, the brat, I'm sorry...heroine?? Finally returns home and rather nobly turns herself into the police. And then has to go into remedial Physics because skipping three weeks of classes when you are at an AP level apparently just renders you completely stupid.

I truly thought this book was just awful. It was hard to root for whatever their names were because they were kind of just spoiled brats. I expect we are meant to feel bad for them since they both had cancer. I'm sorry, but I don't think that excuses a crime spree as they be-bop their way across America. Honestly, I hope she ends up stuck in that town forever. UGH.

Poor attempt at describing a first love. I was really surprised to see the authors glorifying two runaways and stealing a car. Gee, we all had first loves but didn't do things like that. I think Patterson hardly even wrote this book and if he did, I may stop reading him altogether. And to think he co authored this book in memory of his first love who died young. What a shame this was the forum he used to express their time together. ...more

Sixteen year old Axi Moore decided it was time to stop being the good girl and time to live life and go on an adventure.

Together the two of them set off on a road trip where they would discover a world they never knew existed and do things they only dreamed of.

Short yet sweet story about two young people who fall in love despite the challenges they hope to outrun.

I came across First Love and for a couple of reasons it caught my attention. First, I’ve seen it compared to the The Fault in Our Stars many times and second, there was a road trip in the story. Putting these two elements together, I was sure First Love would capture my interest.

Axi Moore had a big surprise for her best friend. Robinson was one she never seemed to be able to shock, but this time she hoped she could. Cutting classes for the afternoon, she had arranged to meet him at Bernie’s, their favourite hang-out, at 1.30 – when he walked in the door his big smile said it all. But she finally did it – when she told him her plans, and that he was part of it, she waited for his answer; “hell yes” was all the answer she needed.

Axi was GG to Robinson – Good Girl, he call Axi Moore had a big surprise for her best friend. Robinson was one she never seemed to be able to shock, but this time she hoped she could. Cutting classes for the afternoon, she had arranged to meet him at Bernie’s, their favourite hang-out, at 1.30 – when he walked in the door his big smile said it all. But she finally did it – when she told him her plans, and that he was part of it, she waited for his answer; “hell yes” was all the answer she needed.

Axi was GG to Robinson – Good Girl, he called her. But she wanted to put a dent in that title. With her little sister, Carole Ann, dying young, her mother deserting her and father taking to the drink to drown his grief, she wanted to flee – the road trip across the country to see things she’d only read about in her precious books was going to be her way of grieving. Robinson would make it so much better - her nickname for him was Scalawag; he lived up to it daily with a mischievous smile to add to the tag.

And so their journey began – before dawn one morning she snuck out of her apartment, leaving her dad asleep on the couch, and met Robinson near the bus depot. But they didn’t take the bus – the journey of a lifetime didn’t begin on a Greyhound bus said Robinson. As they roared off into the distance the exhilaration and excitement took Axi’s breathe away. It had begun…

And so the two of them journeyed across the US, stopping here, camping there, sledding on sand dunes, using fake ID (they failed each time), eating Slim Jims (Robinson) and limp salad (Axi) to their heart’s content. They visited the Big Apple, LA, Detroit and everywhere in between. And all the time, Axi was trying to find the right time to declare her love for Robinson… And the future they didn’t want was edging closer…

What a wonderful, sad, emotional and amazing story! It is a hugely difficult review to write as it would be sooo easy to give away spoilers. But the characters of sixteen year old Axi and seventeen year old Robinson are absolutely real. They form the basis of this story, they ARE the story, with many “along the way” characters who interweave throughout. The writing is beautiful – extremely poignant and moving. I have no hesitation in recommending this novel very highly.

With thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy to read and review.

Doesn't James Patterson write mysteries, or he is just known for them? Anyway, he wrote "First Love" with Emily Raymond. (But look at the typeface of both their names, and you can see who is marketed more) Maybe that's why this book is kind of a mess: it's muddled, unfocused and kind of dumb. Yes, I know it is about teenagers, and they may be the target market, but I thought the book felt dumbed-down. And I wish the characters were more likeable.

I should no longer be surprised that the greatest love stories always end in tragedy. Just think of some of the best works ever written and you’ll understand that a romance lover doesn't have an easy life.

But what is wrong with this specific story? Writing a romance story isn’t easy, I assure you. It needs to be amazing and leave you with bated breath, without being absurd or repetitive. In the end, it has to leave you something - good or bad - but without that bittersweet feeling in your mouth I should no longer be surprised that the greatest love stories always end in tragedy.

In the end, it has to leave you something - good or bad - but without that bittersweet feeling in your mouth because it hasn't completely convinced you.
That is the most important aspect: whether we are talking about two simple people or supernatural creatures or whatever you want, the story must convince the readers.

I absolutely don’t question James Patterson's writing skills; colossus in the mystery genre, I really enjoyed some of his most romantic novels.
But this story has flaws.

Axi and Robinson are - alas - a cliché present in half of the most mediocre love novels: she’s a good girl, shy, with a bad past; he’s a "bad" boy, mysterious, captivating, and a master at making others love him.
They decide to go on this trip, they are having fun and, in the meantime, they understand what they feel for each other. However, now that they are in love, things can't go normally, because they can't be a normal couple.
I won't tell you the ending. I just tell you that, despite my skeptical tone, I too shed a few tears.

I admit that I like these types of novels - I know, I'm a masochist.
Let me be clear, I don't like to cry like a fountain at the end of every book I read, but I know the characteristics of this type of novels, I know what to expect, I know that you should never trust the character you like the most because it always has a bad ending.
But that was too much. I didn't understand if I was reading a soft version of The Fault In Our Stars or a Nicholas Sparks novel without the central development.

There are much better books written by James Patterson, but if you are interested in a smooth and undemanding novel this will maybe work for you.

In a story that is remarkably inspiring, poignant, memorable and full of adventure, James Patterson, the bestselling author of the Alex Cross thrillers and The Women's Murder Club series, has taken a leap into a world of romance with his new novel, First Love, in partnership with Emily Raymond. For those who have identified him with his brand of heart-pounding, out-of-this-world thrillers, the switch is like having a bad dream. But once you get into the story, you'll understand why James Patters In a story that is remarkably inspiring, poignant, memorable and full of adventure, James Patterson, the bestselling author of the Alex Cross thrillers and The Women's Murder Club series, has taken a leap into a world of romance with his new novel, First Love, in partnership with Emily Raymond. For those who have identified him with his brand of heart-pounding, out-of-this-world thrillers, the switch is like having a bad dream. But once you get into the story, you'll understand why James Patterson has to tell this tale.

Axi Moore is a 'good girl' who comes from a family ravaged by tragedy. Her normal world was turned upside-down with the death of her sister from an incurable cancer. She was also diagnosed with cancer. Unable to cope with the situation, her mother ran away, never to be seen again. Her heart-broken father takes to drinking, to escape reality. It's a family devastated by tragedy in every conceivable way.

But a flicker of hope inside her keeps burning. A chance encounter with another cancer patient, Oscar James Robinson, changes her life for the second time. She's plain crazy about him. Axi decides to go on an impulsive cross-country road-trip, and asks Robinson to accompany her. It's a dream come true for both of them. Axi and Robinson cherish the time they are sharing together, with Axi taking snapshots of their adventure which are spread all over the book. But their happiness is short-lived as the carefree adventure soon spins out of control. Will Axi and Robinson survive the ordeal? What has life in store for them?

First Love by James Patterson is a beautiful and heart-rending journey of laughter and tears as Axi and Robinson face the greatest test of life - life itself. Sometimes life will take a turn that you would never anticipate. A truly great contemporary romance, it's difficult to sum up in words the emotions you feel about it. The knowledge that it's partly based on the author's life makes it even more evocative and heartfelt. For fans of James Patterson's brand of thrillers, it's time to take a break and explore the romantic side of the author. ...more

While Axi experiences the thrill of stealing cars and sleeping on roadsides, she begins to admit to herself and the reader that her love for Robinson has been long brewing, but her cowardice has kept her from admitting it. After a medical emergency halts their trip, Axi and Robinson begin to see one another in a new light, or perhaps one that they have simply sheltered from one another. In an effort to complete their promised trip, they break more rules and head out, now fully inebriated in their emotions. Patterson sucks the reader in by this point, only to leave the most emotional (and somewhat predictable) segment of the story for last, as Axi's emotions and her delay in expressing them may come back to haunt her. Turning off his aggressive side, Patterson returns with a novel that warms the deepest part of the heart and leaves a tear embedded in the reader's eye, as young love flourishes.

As I am in the middle of reading three Patterson novels, all from different genres and/or series, I have come to see the author in a few lights. I cannot discount that since he chooses to play the co-author card with most of his books, he will likely flavour each novel differently. That said, it still bears mentioning that this novel, a stand-alone, soars well above some of his other work, even those one-off mysteries he has penned in the last five years. While I am not out of touch with my emotional side, I have always preferred a crime or thriller to something heart-wrenching or romantically inclined. That said, in my long Patterson reading recollection, none of those sappy books he has put his name to have been poorly crafted. This novel is equally as powerful in its emotional impact and development, taking teenagers as the two long-loving characters. Patterson makes the story seem realistic, even if it is knowingly a tad hokey. Perhaps seeking to capture an oft-forgotten reader in his usual genre, Patterson presents a sappy love story to show that he can switch gears. He does so effectively and with little slaughtering of the intended emotional output.

Kudos, Mr. Patterson on this novel. If only many of your other co-authored pieces could flow as nicely and not simply be a way for you to line your pockets while you produce drivel. ...more
