So I love love LOVED this book! It was kind of slow at first, but thst made it more real. their relationship was so cute. I would seriously get lost in the book. I really wish I was Sara lol, bvecauase Toby was like the greatest guy EVER. Especially... well I wont spoil it, but it is an amazing book and I definitely reccomend it.

i found this story very slow and boring. it took FOREVER for them to get together, and their chemistry was horrible. i mean, they talked about random things that weren't all that interesting..and they liked each other when they didn't really know the other person. the only reason i kept reading was that I hate not finishing a story once I've started.

I liked it soo much!!!! They always say opposite's attract! I liked Sara and Tobey... but ii really wish that the smart friend would go out with the one who always gives advice for Tobey and always has a plan.

Really, it was just such a satisfying read. I read it in a night because I simply didn't want to have to face putting it down! The relationship between Tobey and Sara just completely draws you in. Loved it!

The back: When you find something real, everything else falls into place.... Seniors in hight school, Sara and Tobey couldn't be more different. She is focused on getting into her first-choice college; he wants to win Battle of the Bands. Sara's other goal is to find true love, so when Dave, a popular jock, asks her out, she's thrilled. But then there's Tobey. His amazing blue eyes and quirky wit always creep into her thoughts. Lucky for Sara, one of Tobey's goals is also to make her fall in love with him. Told in alternating points of view, Sara and Tobey's real connection will have everyone rooting for them the minute they meet!

"How did this happen again? What exactly did I do wrong?" "Well, since you asked," Mike says, "it's like this: One, you were too much of a wimp to say anything to her. Two, you went back to school with no plan. Dave had a plan. He got Sara. You got nada." Mike leans back, balancing on the back legs of the chair."Zilch. Zero. You didn't even have the balls to go up to her. Dude. I warned you this would happen." "Thanks. I feel so much better now."
