I think if it were possible to give more than 5 stars then this would be the book for it.  It is such a good change of pace when you want something different.  It makes you believe in life and in love.I went into this book doing something I rarely ever do and that's read the synopsis.  That always seems to influence me but some of my friends were reading it and when I won it in a giveaway, I knew it was meant to be.  And, I'm so glad I did!!Abby had been given a second chance at her life and she wasn't wanting to waste it so she wanted to go on a road trip.  In the process of arranging her trip, she unexpectedly meets Beck, and he is unlike many male characters I've read about.  They have this undeniable connection and he immediately wants to go on her trip.  I love how she asked if he was a serial killer and the responses he gave.  This book is such a lighthearted but yet a really in depth book.Abby and Beck's trip is nothing like I expected and one I won't soon forget and am quite jealous of that trip.  They laughed and got into some of the hilarious adventures.  I know I woke my husband up several times laughing at this book!!But beyond the humor and the lightheartedness of the two of them connecting and learning about each, you get a great story from Abby.  it makes me feel like I'm her diary and she's telling her story along the way.  She's quirky but that's what made her so special.  My heart just broke for what this poor girl had to go through and to find it wasn't over yet just broke me even more.  This book really makes you think and makes you realize that no matter what you have to complain about that there are people like Abby in the world who just want to make it from day to day.  She is a very strong girl and I admire her for so much she was able to accomplish in this book.  She really grew from the scared and naive little girl into such a beautiful woman who now had goals in her life, something she had failed to do before.  She actually wanted something and someone in her future.  This book pulled at my emotions and at times I felt like I was right there with her and feeling what she was feeling.  I immediately fell for Beck and I would have liked more of him but once you read it and understand it's Abby's story to tell, then I was quite satisfied.There are not many authors that can pull off the kinds of emotions that you get in this book.  It's beautifully written and so rare to see so many good things happen in one book.  Yes, it is sad but I think the good things that happen really outweigh the bad and will really make you think different about life and how people should lead theirs.
