So freaking *CUTE*. From the snowy DC setting to an absolutely terrifying meet-cute, this book has it all. I loved reading about Shani and her passion for paleoichthyology, especially when she finds her foil in May. I found much of the college-age romance to be realistic, especially that of making your partner your personality. Like seriously, it's Cady Heron/Regina George levels. I kept waiting for something to go horribly wrong a la You've Reached Sam, but thankfully it's just pure and simple YA love and the complications that go along with that. But we still get fleshed out characters and true-to-life conflicts that excavated this cold dead heart.
