Fun Fact: I Think I Love You
By Gina Lynn Larsen
With 10 days left in high school, Nellie Samsin has the next several years of her life planned out. She doesn't have time for romance. Nope it's on the plan but not yet. She wants to get to college and not lose her focus. But life throws her a curve ball and it alters everything, at least for the summer.
Jensen Nichols has been a constant in the Samsin family for years. Friends with Nellie and her father is his writing mentor. And when Nellie's life takes a major hit it affects him too. Together they support one another and discover they could something more. But could a summer romance become a lifetime?
This is a teen read that offers a sweet romance that is touched by loss. This is a realistic fiction that offers a clean romance for teens. It also deals with death of a loved one and how this touches one's life.
As someone who lost a parent at a younger age I can say with certainty a book like this would have been helpful to help others understand what my family and I were going through. Death is never easy to deal with but when it comes unexpectedly or with little warning it is all the harder. One is left wanting one more goodbye, a hug, or even an eye-roll.
Overall this was a good read (a little more kissing than I like) and one that I could recommend to teen readers without hesitation.
I was provided a complimentary ARC of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.
About the Book:
Fun fact: Nellie Samsin has ten days left of high school, and she’s never been kissed—which is fine with her. Being the yearbook editor and valedictorian has taken all her attention. But when she has a chance to kiss her longtime crush, she hopes it will be a magical experience, except it turns out to be super-not-magical, leaving Nellie heartbroken and angry.
