What Goodreads says:
Who would have guessed that four minutes could change everything?Today should be one of the worst days of seventeen-year-old Hadley Sullivan's life. Having missed her flight, she's stuck at JFK airport and late to her father's second wedding, which is taking place in London and involves a soon-to-be stepmother Hadley's never even met. Then she meets the perfect boy in the airport's cramped waiting area. His name is Oliver, he's British, and he's sitting in her row.
A long night on the plane passes in the blink of an eye, and Hadley and Oliver lose track of each other in the airport chaos upon arrival. Can fate intervene to bring them together once more?
Quirks of timing play out in this romantic and cinematic novel about family connections, second chances, and first loves. Set over a twenty-four-hour-period, Hadley and Oliver's story will make you believe that true love finds you when you're least expecting it.
What I say:
I know of quite a few people who didn't like the book because they thought it was too short or because it only took place in 24 hours. But that's just what I liked about it. I liked that both Hadley and Olivers reasons for flying to London seem to be none of the pleasant kind and how they have to spend so much time so close together. That also made it plausible for me how they find their love within just 24 hours (it is not spoilering to say that they find their love, even goodreads says it.)
I also liked how in the end it isn't only a cheesy love story anymore but it also gets some depth, but not to much as to make it too deep and destroy the light and warm feeling you get while watching the two of them at the airport and in the plane.
However, if you want a really profound book with a huge moral that makes you think about its meaning for weeks, this is not the book for you.
If you want a nice love story where you don't have to get your head in, this definitely IS the book for you.
Plus, you know, I'm a 16-year old girl, of course I enjoy a love story like this one. Especially since Oliver is British and I do have to admit that I might have developed a little crush on him.
