Flawless....there isn't one thing I can complain about this book. It is emotionally powerful and raw. A tale of grief and strength. Coming of age....I can't even get my thoughts together I am so emotionally wrung dry! Ok, after taking some time to collect myself...here are some of my favorite moments...(there are too many to list but these stuck out for me):When Ashlynn sees Daniel for the first time...It was strange to call him a man because he wasn't that old. But he was too grown to be called a boy. There needed to be a word for the in-between years. Maybe moy? Ban? Banmoy? (very cute...gives you insight into how intelligent and charming Ashlynn's personality is)On making eye contact for the second time with Daniel on the train...When I walked back to my seat, my heart tightened in my chest because I knew I would have to walk past Mr. Beautiful Eyes again. My eyes stayed down until I reached my seat. I released a breath, and then my head involuntarily turned toward him. What?! Dang my eyes for wanting another glance his way. He smiled again and nodded toward me. I didn't smile back because I was too nervous. The strange blue eyes made me so flipping nervous. (I love this type of thing!)On the adorable and silly banter between Ryan and Hailey...Hailey shook her head toward her brother, but I didn't think she was shocked at all. "Keep it in your pants, Ryan." His hand flew to his chest and his eyes narrowed in fright. "Why the hell would I do that when others are so kindly inviting me into theirs? Plus, the idea of collecting spider webs down there like my sissy isn't very pleasing." (haha, made me chuckle out loud with that one!)When Daniel gave an assignment for the students to write a flash fiction piece, a student challenged him to do the same...."Shakespeare, kisses, lists. The vision before reality. Dream once more." (*sigh* I mean, come ON!!!! Can he be any dreamier and could they be any more in love with one another and the epitome of perfection?!)I seriously could go on and on and practically type out every word of this book, that is how much each scene affected me and I became completely consumed. This is my first book from this author and she has me HOOKED! infinite stars!!!!!!
