Overall, I really enjoyed this book! I absolutely loved being back in the world of Dash and Lily! The characters are all so lovely (even the rough ones). The storyline was sweet. And the relationships all seemed so real.

However, I felt that this was a slight let down from Dash & Lily's Book Of Dares, but only because the way Lily was acting seemed very childish to me. I totally understand how rough her year was, but the way she was acting, you would have thought that she was 10 rather than 17.

This passage from the book that sums up my feelings about the first half of the book:
Lily: "I can't talk to him about it!"
Lily's Mom: "But why not? He's your boyfriend. I don't understand."

But once her Mom offers her some advice, things start to pick up!

My favorite passages:

It was such a relief to just say it out loud. Already I felt better, despite how bruised my heart was.

"...You can go anywhere in a book. Books are adventure. Knowledge. Possibility. Magic."

I was a little cold, admittedly, but my heart was so very warm. Would I ever get over this flush of happiness at the sight of him? Probably never.

Sometimes you make plans. Sometimes plans make themselves.
