London Falling is a sweet story of a young man and woman who get partnered together in a college communication class.London is an overachiever who can’t wait to graduate and flee to Los Angeles–but to do that, she needs an A in the class. Beau’s taking it because he heard there’s no homework.London and Beau were both likable characters. London was a semi-celebrity on campus for her starring roles in plays, and Beau was making a name for himself as ‘the blogger with the bucket list.’ London was a bit uptight in her quest for an ‘A,’ but it was so much fun to read her character. Beau was much more laid back.I really liked that London wasn’t as aware of Beau’s insane attractiveness as other girls, and that it wasn’t until she started getting to know him that he was able to knock her off her game and make her feel a bit awkward. They developed a real connection instead of insta-attraction, and it was such a refreshing change of pace from other books I’ve read recently.There were so many fun scenes in this book–from London and Beau getting so hot and heavy they nearly go up in flames (literally!) to my favorite–’the hometown date,’ where London takes Beau home to meet her family, and he nearly forgets about her. There were so many sweet, belly-laughing scenes in this book!London Falling was fun read about two people who find love when they are least expecting it. This is a great book if you are looking for a quick, sweet read that will leave you with a smile on your face!
