(Summary from Goodreads). From the author of This Song Will Save Your Life comes a funny and relatable book about the hazards of falling for a person you haven't met yet.
Seventeen-year-old Arden Huntley is recklessly loyal. Taking care of her loved ones is what gives Arden purpose in her life and makes her feel like she matters. But she's tired of being loyal to people who don't appreciate her—including her needy best friend and her absent mom.
Arden finds comfort in a blog she stumbles upon called "Tonight the Streets Are Ours," the musings of a young New York City writer named Peter. When Peter is dumped by the girlfriend he blogs about, Arden decides to take a road trip to see him.
During one crazy night out in NYC filled with parties, dancing, and music—the type of night when anything can happen, and nearly everything does—Arden discovers that Peter isn't exactly who she thought he was. And maybe she isn't exactly who she thought she was, either.
I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.
I was interested in this book because of the cover. It is so pretty and I was very attracted to it. I couldn't put this book down! It was an interesting book. I like that Arden was loyal to her best friend and her bf even if they didn't deserve it. She sticks by her friends no matter what.
I loved Peter's writing. I definitely predicted what happened... and I'm glad that what happened to Peter happened to him. His writing made it seem like his story as the right story until Arden went to NYC and met him and found out more about this story.
The part with Arden's mother was surprising... She was devoted to being the best mother possible and going to extremes to fit that role... until she broke down and couldn't handle it anymore.
I really liked the epilogue. I liked that it was a relatable love story even if the rest of it might not have been as relatable (because who decides to dive to NYC last minute just to meet a blogger?). It was a fun and entertaining read. The plot developed quickly and was easy to follow.
4.5 out of five stars.
