Did you like to try and seek a peek at your sibling’s diary when you were young? If you did then this is a book for you, the story of Delilah McCannon as recorded by Delilah McCannon. A story filled with angst of growing up and finding out what love means.The story revolves around the characters being forced apart, mainly by their own mistakes and stupidity as seen through Delilah’s viewpoint. Throughout the book the hero’s feelings for Delilah never falter. She just didn’t believe in them enough.Delilah meets Ben Chambers in an unusual way and finds they have a bizarre attraction where they drive each other crazy and cannot keep their hands off each other. Ben then pisses Delilah off and she ignores him. She eventually decides not to be upset anymore and the crazy attraction action starts again. After several rounds of this Delilah seems to have grown up a bit but still doesn’t realize how much Ben loves her and what she must do to keep him. And the diary goes on. Oh yes, this all happens while they are going to university and living next to each other in a six person dorm floor.In fairness, I must admit that I don’t like a book in first person and only one POV. That is what this book is but the delightful craziness in the way Anna Bloom crafted the book kept me interested 3.5 stars. Even though it felt like reading someone’s diary.
