I first heard about this book through my public library’s
NextReads newsletter. It was the title that
really caught my eye. It is a Young
Adult book and is a quick, easy read.
At first, I was a little skeptical about the premise. Girl meets boy in airport, they sit together
on the plane, share deep thoughts and are instantly in love. Unfortunately, after leaving the plane, they
get separated. As Hadley gets in a cab
to get to her Father’s wedding, she assumes she’ll never see Oliver again.
What I liked about this book is that it goes beyond the
young romance. It is as much about the
two teen’s relationships with their parents, how their parents’ relationships
have colored their feeling about love and marriage, and the process of healing
from broken relationships.
So while the romance may be unbelievable, the story goes
much deeper as it explores forgiveness, second chances, and the risks of loving.
I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
