The storyline..... 
 This book was not particularly about one person or even just a romance. It had many levels. There was a little romance, but it was not all gushy and lovey. It actually was just right. The book was more about a girl trying to find out who she is over the course of a summer instead of trying to be what other people thinks she is. Also about a boy trying to open himself up again after a devastating accident. 
 The Characters..... 
 I loved all of them!! The cast of characters were very well written and very fun to listen to. I wonder if I had read the book instead of listening if I would have a different opinion? I cannot really say that I have a one favorite character. They were all very complex with their own personalities, from Auden's Mom, whom is very literary and a professor. Down to Adam, whom is in love with Maggie but has not let her know and his biggest thrill is riding bikes. 
 In Conclusion.... 
 I would highly recommend this book to a friend looking for a good thought-provoking read. I am still thinking about all that Auden went through to change. This is the first book that I have read by Ms. Dessen and I am on the hunt for the next!
