Summary
Who would have guessed that four minutes could change
everything?

Hadley Sullivan's life. Having missed her flight, she's stuck at JFK airport
and late to her father's second wedding, which is taking place in London and
involves a soon-to-be stepmother Hadley's never even met. Then she meets the
perfect boy in the airport's cramped waiting area. His name is Oliver, he's
British, and he's sitting in her row.
A long night on the plane passes in the blink of an eye, and
Hadley and Oliver lose track of each other in the airport chaos upon arrival.
Can fate intervene to bring them together once more?
Quirks of timing play out in this romantic and cinematic
novel about family connections, second chances, and first loves. Set over a
twenty-four-hour-period, Hadley and Oliver's story will make you believe that
true love finds you when you're least expecting it.
Review
*Note rewritten post
as blogger deleted first attempt*
I though this book
was fabulous. I loved the relation ship between Hadley and Oliver. I liked how
they just seemed to fit and perfectly compliment each other. I thought their
conversations were always witty and natural. I also like that the book was written
from Hadley’s point of view. It was fun to read how Hadley thought the
situation was going.
I also liked reading
about Hadley’s relationship with the father. In the book Hadley is heading to
London for her father’s wedding even though she hasn’t seen him in a long time.
Before her parents split they were very close with a lot of inside jokes, that
all went away when her dad moved to London. I loved finding out what happened
when they see each other again and how it made Hadley feel. It all seemed very believable
and realistic. I also enjoyed how Oliver helped Hadley deal with her feelings
about her father.
The only thing that
was frustrating about the book was the lack of math. As a math nerd I thought
from the title that the boon might have something to do with math. However it
was never really mentioned in the book. I guess that’s what I get for judging a
book by its title.
Overall this was an
excellent read that I would recommend for any one who likes teen romances or
romances that involve travel and airports.
I've heard so many great things about it! I've been wanting to read it for a while, and based on everything I've heard think I'll love it too. Although it's too bad it isn't more "math-y" because that would probably make me run out and read it now.
