I've been (anxiously) waiting on TRIP since Tina announced she was writing it. Her Remember When series is one of my all-time favorites and Trip and Layla have a special place in my heart. In the many times I've read the series, I've wondered about what Trip was really thinking in some key scenes and I really wanted to get to know him better. TRIP gave me that opportunity, but I was nervous going in. Would my feelings towards him change? What if he didn't live up to my expectations? I was nervous for nothing. He exceeded my expectations and, if my feelings changed at all, it was that they got stronger. It was absolutely perfect. 

I'm not going to waste my time (or yours!) talking about the plot. If you're a fan of the Remember When series, you know how special it is. If you've not yet read it, you need to stop reading my review immediately and go buy and start the first book. Like, now. Shoo. ;) TRIP was as sweet and funny as the original, but in it I also found some vulnerability to Trip that I didn't see in the original. I don't think I realized just how much I needed his POV to make the story feel complete. 

I loved everything about TRIP. It felt a little like visiting with old friends and now I want to reread the entire Remember When series while Tina is writing the next book. I'm so happy I dropped everything to read TRIP when I got my hands on it. It gave me sooooo many feels... and a wicked book hangover. I just love Trip and Layla so much and I'm a greedy reader, so I need the second book in his POV stat. Even if I'm pretty sure it will utterly destroy me since it's about their time apart and all the things that go on then. 

I suspect fans of the Remember When series will feel the same way I do about TRIP, both the book and the character. I could go on and on and on about how much I love this book and this series, but I'll spare you. I'll be over here trying to keep myself from shouting my love for it from the rooftop. #TripandLayla4EVA 

FAVORITE QUOTES

I'd met lots of pretty girls in my life, but she... I don't know, man. She did something to me. I stood there paralyzed, conscious of nothing but the sensation of my heart actually lurching in my chest. 

The only thing rambling through my mind is how much I want to grab you out of that chair and kiss you right now. Kiss you the way you need to be kissed—and kiss you often.

"I'm not going to be that guy, that guy who hangs on too tight because he's afraid of what will happen when he lets go."
