Lori is the best, she's witty and sassy and so freaking funny. Very similar on the outside but each of them had a different personality that made them stood out. She is a tomboy that only hangs out with herĬollege brother and her neighbors next door, three extremely handsome, extremely manly, sailor boys.Įven though there were a lot of boys in this story, I never lost track of who was who, they might have looked Lori new femme fatale, her tidy and composed brother McGillicuddy,Īnd the three brothers next door, Adam the youngest *swoon*, Sean the heartbreaker middle child, and Cameronthe forever cool first born.Īnd the reason of all this funniness was the main character: Lori. I loved all the funny interactions between these five friends. I was cracking up but at the same time trying to be quiet and it ended up sounding like an animal choking, my momĮven went to check on me to see why I was crying (I wasn't but it sounded like high pitched sobs, according to her) No, really I was reading this yesterday at around 1 in the morning, It sounded fun, and summery and had the extra awesome factor that I loooove with passion:īoy and girl best friends turned something more *wink*.īut I wasn't prepared for all the funniness. I've wanted this book ever since I read the summary a looong time ago on Amazon. So it makes me happy there's someone out there who portrays teenagers as real as they come. I only know another author that writes teenagers this real, and that's Queen Meg Cabot,

It's just that she has this writing style, so carefree and fearless and teenagery. Slowly but surely, I've come to love Jennifer Echols books.
