Sounds like it would make a great beach read!

I think the age difference was really approached in a realistic fashion. They and others had to deal with it and it seemed authentic.<br /><br /><a href="http://tsukibooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Tsuki @ Tsuki's Book Blog</a>tsukikomewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587559717033093542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3591875448218111169.post-41889537134697380412013-05-17T23:41:49.668-05:002013-05-17T23:41:49.668-05:00I agree with Maji.

Heck, in other books if the girl isn't at least 17 then THAT is also weird.. I heard really good things about this book but I just can't seem to get over that big age difference.<br /><br />nonetheless, great review!<br />- Juhina @ <a href="http://www.majibookshelf.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Maji Bookshelf</a>Maji Bookshelfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10041371370691545149noreply@blogger.com
