chrysfey 's review for:

Just One Day by Gayle Forman
3.0

Allyson meets Willem and spends just one day and night with him in Paris before he disappears mysteriously.

First, I love Willem's name. It's swoon-worthy. ;) Second, I felt as though this story had dragged on. To me, it's about finding Willem again, and everything that took place during the year with Allyson at college was extra writing. Third, I loved the bits of Shakespeare and French sprinkled throughout the story. What a treat! Finally, I can't wait to read Just One Year because I feel that the real story lies with Willem.
