Review Detail

Reader reviewed by the book muncher

Its both Sarah and Tobeys senior year of high school. Saras got everything planned out: shes going to attend NYU after she graduates. And shes all set to go with her stellar grades. Tobey on the other hand doesnt plan on attending college. He figures hell win Battle of the Bands and move onto greater things than school. But there is one thing hes sure on: making Sara fall in love with him.

When It Happens was a cute and funny story that I thoroughly enjoyed. Sara and Tobey have the perfect kind of romance that everyone wishes they had. Susane Colasanti understands teen emotions well, especially those of the smart girl and the music junkie. The plot flowed smoothly, and I really liked the alternate narration between Sara and Tobey. If this novel had one flaw, it would be that the story was too perfect, which made it unrealistic. I know I was wondering if everything in this story continued to be this perfect when they started college.

If youre looking for a light, fun, and enjoyable story, When It Happens is the novel for you. Im definitely going to check out Susane Colasantis next novel, Take Me There.
