I loved this so much. It really kept my attention span and got really good at the end.I didn't want it to end.One word, Fabulous! It's a typical story about a girl (Kate) crushing over a boy (Brad) whom she first laid eyes on, but didn't realize that the better (Joe) is just right behind her. I like the reason why Joe had liked Kate, the legendary love at first sight, gosh, I don't think I'll ever get bored of any story with this concept (lecturing here?), but it's just so sweet. He had been there when she needed comforting (after Brad ditched her for Sinthia, I mean Cynthia), she is an open book
I couldn't really get into this book. The whole time Kate's character just really annoyed me; she was so blind to what was around her and always felt bad for herself. Because of that I couldn't enjoy the book as much as I'd wanted to.
Another cute Rachel Hawthorne book!And now we are back to snowy lands. For some reason I seem to have picked the books in order of hot (Island Girls), cold (Snowed In), warm (Boyfriend Project), hot (Caribbean Cruising) and back to this book, cold again. I only noticed when I finished the books. :D Funny coincidence.Back to the book. This one was quite good, but I just didn't like the main character or her brother that much. The main character was ditzy, an idiot and totally oblivious to those
WHAT'S WITH THE NAME JOE?? That's two consecutive books with the swoon worthy boy being Joe. I don't mind at all. I'll take either one.Okay so I was actually thinking of giving this book 4 stars because it's predictable, no doubt, but..1) No matter how you you put it, I am a sucker for stories like these. First loves and happy endings. 2) The setting is so romantic with the snow and all that. 3) It being predictable was not the point. I was along for the ride. The in betweens and the happenings.

While the story line was interesting (although not very original), I found the characters lacking in depth and the dialogue was a little unrealistic/cheesy. I can't really find the right word to describe it, but the banter was just...bad. I'm not trying to be negative, but some of the conversations made me cringe. However, I do recommend this to any (mature) preteen looking for a light 2 hour (tops) read.
