I didn't love it but I didn't hate it.The book was about Erin Easter getting bullied buy 2 other Erins in her grade and some of her classmates. Amongst all of the bullying she catches the eye of a fellow classmate named Weston. He ends up finally taking up for her after all the years of sitting back and watching it happen. I liked Weston and I was happy when he finally grew a pair and stood up to his friends in regards to Erin. Even though I liked Erin and Weston, I didnt fall in love with their connection and storyline as boyfriend and girlfriend. I didnt really connect with the supporting characters either. I think I just had my hopes too high because Jamie is one of my favorite authors and I love reading about characters who overcome obstacles.This book really should have been longer. Because it was around 100 pages long, it seemed like everything was rushed. I didnt understand that ending at all. I get that the title is called Happenstance and the meaning behind it but the tragedy that happened during spring break was not a good twist. It left me scratching my head like what the freak just happened. So unfortunately this book did not tickle my fancy.
