I didn't really like/feel for the characters that much just because of the way it was written. however I do think the idea of this is interesting, writing a book that basically contains a whole night of adventures
also I did tear up a lil at the end, just the general vibe is so heartbreaking, and then the end was sweet

A thousand stars if Goodreads permits.
There was no out-of-this-world event here. I think what got me is that perfect simplicity. And it's poignant and compelling. Sad and happy and everything in between.
Even when you know how this book would end, how Clare and Aidan got there will still make you want to be in on the ride. And eventually you will realize how it's not all that different from what you have.
It's amazing how Jen (the author, yes, first-name-basis-yes) captures heart-tugging emotions that a lot of people can relate to. It's just heartwarmingly perfect.
AND JEN HAS THE PERFECT BOOK COVERS. I GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL.
AND, LASTLY, I WANT THIS TO BE MADE INTO A FILM. PLEASE GOOD HEAVENS PLEASE.

I originally put this one on my TBR pile when the movie released on Netflix because the book is always better. I have yet to watch the movie but I wanted something light… well lighter than adult issues because when you’re young you wonder where choices will lead you and the choices almost seem easier because it’s just you and the other person who will be affected no so many people as when children become a part of the love story. I must say I would love a series for this one.

It was okay. I didn't completely hate it but I didn't like it all that much either. I was mostly frustrated with Aidan and Clare (mostly Clare) because they (she) just can't seem to make up her mind whether to break up or not and they kept having the same conversation the entire novel. SO FRUSTRATING. At one point, I wanted to chuck the book across the room and shout "JUST F'IN BREAK UP ALREADY!!"
My least favorite of Jennifer E. Smith's books.

I'm a big fan of this author. She's so reliable, and her books are swoony without making you blush, so I can give her to just about anyone. In this particular book, like how she explores the fact that there is no one right answer to Clare and Aiden's situation. "That one epic night" is always a fun genre and this book is no exception.
Usually I find that Jennifer's books fall short of my expectations, or aren't at all what I was thinking they would be. In this case I was glad that it wasn't what I expected. I assumed the whole book would be cutesy and sentimental with a dramatic conversation, but Clare and Aiden surprised me. They had honest fights but I kept coming back together and it was interesting to follow. I also liked that while some of their memories were cliche there was so much that was unique to there specific relationship that was really quite interesting. I didn't expect how spontaneous their night would get but it did and I was very happy it did.
What an absolutely adorable book! I just can't get enough of Jennifer E Smith's books...they're all so great. I must say I didn't enjoy this book as much as her others but I think that was because Aiden and Clare were already together as opposed to other books where we're waiting for the couple to get together. In saying that, I still loved this book!
