Review posted here. 
 At first, The Promise of Amazing appears to be a case of good girl meets bad boy, but beneath the cutesy cover and it-could-be-fate summary, this book has a lot more going for it. For most people, there is a point in our lives when we realize that something has got to give. There must be a big change, or things are just not going to work out, and the weird thing is that even though most people hit this point, you will ALWAYS have opposition to your change, even if it's a good one. For Wren and Grayson, they both hit that milestone when she saves him from choking on a miniature meat tube encased in a doughy wrap (inside joke. Gotta read the book, folks!). The rest, as the saying goes, is history. Adorable, sexy, convoluted, dangerous, crazypants history. 
 By far, one of the aspects of Promise of Amazing is Wren and Grayson's connection. You can turn your nose at it and call it instalove if you wish, but I loved the way these kids couldn't stay away from one another. It wasn't creepy or stalker-esque (but their conversation about that is sooo precious). It was natural, an effect of her heroism combined with really great chemistry. Wren doesn't force Grayson to participate in ridiculous schemes, and Gray draws Wren out of her shell. By the way, it's so weird the way everyone describes Wren as the quiet girl, but honestly, I never saw it because 1. she's one of the narrators, and 2. girlfriend has some serious sass when she puts it out there. Nobody puts Baby Wren in the corner! Anyway, I really appreciate the genuine nature of their relationship, which was apparent even as Grayson was lying his butt off. Or withholding. Whatever. Tomayto, tomahto. 
 I also really enjoy the realness of the characters. Grayson, Luke, and Andy are, at times, coarse and crude. Teenagers swear so I'm okay with the language in this book, but I also really appreciate that Robin didn't go over the top with it. It's not like some books of movies when some writers surely must say, "Oops. Dropped an F-bomb. Broke that barrier. Guess I'll drop ALL the F-bombs" and everything devolves into "that effing effer is effed!" No. The language is appropriate for a book about high schooler who do naughty things. I actually found the boys' banter and insults witty, clever, and creative. I definitely laughed out loud several times. Meanwhile, the girls were not prissy and pure. When Wren (wow, that's a terrible combo of words!) gets angry, she's not afraid to let people know it. She's not a delicate little flower who watches her language. When she's pissed, she's pissed, and she sure lets loose. It's a nice touch! 
 I do have some complaints about Promise of Amazing. For a book primarily about Grayson and Wren, there are a LOT of supporting characters, and honestly, I would have liked to have seen some of them receive more page time. I felt like certain scenes were cut off too abruptly, and that didn't help. Not sure if that was an intentional writing decision on Robin's part, or if those scene endings were part of the editing process. I would have liked those scenes to transition a bit better. I also wanted a lot more of Wren and Grayson's actual romance. There's all this buildup to getting together and then their fight to stay together, but there was very little of them actually together. I get it; there's also very little conflict in the "together" part of a fictional romance, but c'mon. Throw the readers a bone. Or some more kissing (I realize that is also a very poor combination of sentences, but I'm smiling and giggling so it's staying. I occasionally have the mind & sense of humor as a fifteen year old boy). Finally, I was pretty frustrated with the whole trainwreck of a climax. That confrontation was nothing more than a clusterduck. I wanted to slap Wren and Grayson upside their heads. By the end of it, I was yelling, "WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?!" at my tablet. I mean, there are poor choices like wear those shoes with that dress or forgetting an umbrella, and then there are poor choices like creating a Bling Ring or staging a confrontation with your frenemy at your parents' business. *facepalm* 
 All in all, I really enjoyed The Promise of Amazing. It was a quick read, but it was also clever and engaging. I could relate to the characters and sympathize with their problems, even as I wanted to smack them around a little bit for making it worse. But that's life of a reader. The characters always make it worse, and there's not a dang thing we can do to stop them. I find Robin's writing style very appealing, and I really like this as an example of good dual pov. If Robin continues to write novels like The Promise of Amazing, I will continue to read and enjoy them, and I believe many readers will feel the same.
