Review by student: Jolleen M.

Theo is a sweet, sometimes naive, 16 year old boy who is mourning the loss of the life he loved and adjusting to his new life. He broke his leg and is adjusting his plans for the summer. He works as a prep chef under a high-end french restaurant and meets a girl named Julia who he falls in love with.

I would definitely recommend this book to a friend who is into drama and romance. At least for me, it was quick and easy to read because I do enjoy a good romance book. It’s nothing too complicated to understand. I feel like it’s a good book to read if you’re into romance and drama or even maybe a little bit of culinary.

I really liked Theo’s character development throughout the story and that it takes place in the 80’s. I don’t have any suggestions. I quite enjoyed this book.
