The Infinite Moment of Us by Lauren Myracle
Goodreads Summary:
For as long as she can remember, Wren Gray’s goal has been to please her parents. But as high school graduation nears, so does an uncomfortable realization: Pleasing her parents once overlapped with pleasing herself, but now… not so much. Wren needs to honor her own desires, but how can she if she doesn’t even know what they are?
Charlie Parker, on the other hand, is painfully aware of his heart’s desire. A gentle boy with a troubled past, Charlie has loved Wren since the day he first saw her. But a girl like Wren would never fall for a guy like Charlie—at least not the sort of guy Charlie believes himself to be.
And yet certain things are written in the stars. And in the summer after high school, Wren and Charlie’s souls will collide. But souls are complicated, as are the bodies that house them…
Sexy, romantic, and oh-so-true to life, this is an unforgettable look at first love from one of young adult fiction’s greatest writers.
My Review:
I’m not sure where to start my review of this book. There were things about it that I loved, and things about it that I really didn’t. First of all, this is a young adult book, but I would definitely say it leans on the more mature side of young adult. There is a lot of talk about sex, and some graphic descriptions of this for it be considered a young adult book.
I actually really liked the plot of this book. I thought it was sweet and cute. However, the darker twist toward the end felt a little unnecessary. I get that the author was trying to add another conflict, but I felt like it could have been done differently. The actually ending of the book was cute, but predictable. I almost wish it had one more chapter though. It seemed to end a little early for me.
3.5 stars
I received this book for free in return for an honest review.
