(3.5 stars) Clare and Aidan go on a "scavenger hunt" for their last night in town before departing to college. Clare will be going to Darmouth in New Hampshire and Aiden will be at UCLA in California. They're trying to determine the outcome of their relationship to stay together or to break-up. Throughout this night, they follow the list of their first-times and special places that have meaning to their relationship. It's a wild night full of emotions and what-if moments, as well as goodbye's to their friends and to each other.

I really liked the organization of the story. The chapters are divided by each stop from #1 to #14. Each stop is described in detail of why it's significant to their relationship. As well as some detours that get in the way.

Friendship is a significant part of this book, especially with their friends Scotty and Stella. Scotty is acting out because of his emotions toward the fact that he's staying in town at community college while his friends are going away to college. I could relate to Scotty because I felt disappointed when my friends went to college and I went to community college. It hurt and I didn't talk to them as often as I thought I would. It was a big change.

However, I have trouble with Smith's books. I always feel disappointed with the story and the characters until the end. The end is where I feel that I liked the book, but I wish that the book would've been like that the whole time. Clare was a character that annoyed me. She could never make up her mind, she was whiny and it seemed that everything revolved around her. Her friend, Stella calls her out and says that it's always been about Clare and her complaining about what to do with Aiden, but she never once asked her what was going on with her. It was "why aren't you there for me?"...ugh. Clare is very, VERY indecisive in this book. I always have a problem with Smith's female characters, they always seem the same. Stella was my favorite character, by far. I loved her personality and how she put Scotty in his place!

I usually have a problem with Smith's writing because it's not what I'm used to. But, I didn't have a problem with the writing in this book. It was clear for me and I wasn't confused like I usually am.

I really liked the storyline of what happens next when you're going off to college. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is graduating high school, you'll resonate with this story - for sure!
