This book can make you want to cry or laugh out loud. It is realistic fiction. Samantha Kingston tells the story. She's your typical popular girl- the girl who hates her parents, loves her friends, and is a real jerk. I didn't like Sam at first but came to love her as she played with my emotions. She actually brought tears to my eyes and made me laugh uncontrollably in the car over spring break- behavior that turned my family's heads. :) It wasn't the funniest book I've ever read, but it felt like it because I was so bored. So yes, I love Sam, I hate Lindsey because she's an insensitive, popular jerk, I love Elody, because she seems to believe in Yolo and I just love her for it. Aly.. I have mixed feelings on her. I feel like she's insecure and needs help boosting her confidence, and I believe she thinks she's the tag along of the group. Izzy, Sam's little sister, is ADORABLE. you can't help loving her. Moving on to the problem... One of Sam's favorite days of the year is Cupid Day- also called Valentine's day. The day is going great, when she and her group are invited to a party. The party is hosted by her childhood friend, Kent. So they decide to go. She believes she'll wake up in the morning to the day after Cupid's Day, but after too much to drink, they head home... the next morning, Sam wakes up to Cupid's Day. Again. The characters are described very well. I feel like I know them. What happened to Sam and her friends, and WHY DOES SHE WAKE UP????
