(One of the best Romance books) -Seventeenth Summer

          This is literally one of the best Romance stories i have ever read. My main character Angie has never been on a date before, this would be her first. Getting ready was such a hassle for her; she was so anxious. Wouldn't this be any other average girl? First dates are not always easy. This same thing happened for Angie. Ending the date that she had with Jack Duluth was highly uncomfortable for her. While, it was pouring rain outside the only thoughts that came to mind for her were "Have i been fun?" or "Don't you like me more than the others?" She quickly remembered that girls don't ask those sort of questions.
       With Jack, everything is different for her and it's like she expands into a whole other universe with just him and her. I also would rather think of this book as a romantic comedy. Although, it's sweet it's hysterical. On their first date, as they were getting to know each other they had just about everything in common with each other. They would just stare into the sky all night long and chat. Jack even lent her his jacket when it got chilly that night while they were sailing on the boat. Angie returned home lovestruck. She couldn't even begin to explain her day. She was so clueless about her date and was unaware of what she felt that she had to ask her bigger sisters for some help. Knowing Angie from the beginning of the book to where she is now with Jack i can tell that she has changed. Just everything about her is unique. Angie used to be shy, calm and boring as a character. Now she's grown into something bigger and outgoing; like a moth to a beautiful big butterfly.
       I see that she is in love even if she refuses to admit it. When your in a situation like her's there's no holding back. The author Maureen Daly did an excellent job of showing emotion and description. Even though the author wants us to believe that perhaps first love at first sight doesn't exist, i think otherwise because just this one night at the drugstore with them peeking at each other changed everything!
