Ok, so to continue a trend this is yet another dissenting view... This book was a mess. The title is misleading and had me thinking that the story was going to something very different to what it actually ended up being. It touches upon so many serious topics, all glossed over and none given the depth needed to treat the severity with respect; including witnessing the suicide by gun (on page - twice) of a sibling. And really, how many issues does one couple need to experience within the pages of a book less than 250 pages? Apart from that, there were so many things that I despised in the narrative, including * all the high school dramarama - this really read to me like a cliched YA book, but with a lot more sexual content * the whole Kennedy/Nicole thing... why? These types of lack of communication issues are so frustrating and are a placeholder for proper storytelling * the actions of Kennedy's father * the many other girls who were coming on to Clay whilst Kennedy was right by his side * the highly stereotypical gay bff * Kennedy's born again virgin status/Clays whoring during their 'break' * the 'accident' - how it happened and the effects of it and that's just a few of the issues I had. Also, early on in the book, I was confused as to what the book was supposed to be about - Clay and Kennedy now... or then (whilst they were still in school) as so much of the story was 'back then'. Overall, the idea was just not executed well,
