I am completely in love with the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series, so seeing another book by this lady was intriguing. It was very good. About a person's first true love. The sacrifices we make for the ones we love. Recently, from TV and film, I had just been feeling that the concept of 'love' has just become so superficial (not that I actually know anything haha) and meaningless and often pornographic. However, she made it seem so beautiful that I hope everyone would be lucky to experience. Innocent, pure love that makes a person feel guilty about being allowed to have or afraid of its power. Brashares painted a wonderful story that is engrossing and sweet and simple. I highly recommend it as it appeals to my inner romantic-idealism.
