About the book:
Sixteen-year-old Shana Wilde is officially on a Boy Moratorium. After a devastating breakup, she decides it's time to end the plague of Mr. Wrong, Wrong, and More Wrong.
Enter Quattro, the undeniably cute lacrosse player who slams into Shana one morning in Seattle. Sparks don't just fly; they ignite. And so does Shana's interest.
Right as she's about to rethink her ban on boys, she receives crushing news: Her dad is going blind. Quattro is quickly forgotten, and Shana and her parents vow to make the most of the time her father has left to see. So they travel to Machu Picchu, and as they begin their trek, they run into none other than Quattro himself. But even as the trip unites them, Quattro pulls away mysteriously... Love and loss, humor and heartbreak collide in this new novel from acclaimed author Justina Chen.
My Review:
This was my first book by Justina Chen. I really enjoyed the characters and the plot of this book. I loved the emotional aspect of this story as well as the many outrageous and laugh out loud moments (humor definitely had a great role in this story). Don't get me wrong there is also conflict and a lot of family drama as well. Many of the reasons why I found this book so easy to read and didn't want to put it down.
