If Only
by A.J. Pine
If Only is a study abroad romance that will be lots of fun for literature lovers. Jordan hasn't had a boyfriend in a long time, and her best friend makes her promise that on her study abroad experience that she will just let loose and let herself have some fun for once. Insert two other american guys also doing study abroad and you know that they will spice things up for Jordan. There is Griffin, the fun loving and no commitment type of guy that has charm to spare. And then there is Noah, who has so much in common with Jordan but does have a few strings attached. So who will she pick?
I really liked how Authors E.M Forester and Shakespeare played a big role in this book. The classes she takes are very interactive and we get to see the literature interwoven into the storyline. I think that was my favorite part of the book. The writing is great and the characters are all very engaging.
I had a lot of ups and downs with this book. I absolutely loved Griffin and I was disappointed that he didn't play a bigger role in the story. I would love to see him get a follow up story of his own. I liked If Only, but with A.J. Pine's writing and Griffin's personality, I think that would be a story that I would LOVE.
I just wasn't sure about Noah. I went back and forth with him so much. A few of his decisions rubbed me the wrong way. I loved the chemistry that him and Jordan shared, but there were so so so many ups and downs between the two of them. It was tiring. I think the ending of the book was great, and I like the way it ended up working out. I think it was best for the characters. I loved the international setting of the book. I think a lot of people that weren't as attached to Griffin as I was, would really fall in love with this book. It is so well written and very cute.
