Such a Rush by Jennifer Echols

3.0

This is a pretty conventional YA romance. I thought it was just OK, but then the payoff is good if you're in a romantic mood. The writing wasn't great and the structure was poor: a lot of the action was told to the reader second-hand. Like when one major character dies, we're just told about it three months later. The main character, Leah, was always catching us up on what happenened, like when she met her best friend, or had interactions with Mark, or when people died. It really annoyed me that I, the reader, didn't get to see these scenes. Also, since I don't know about planes or working in a small airport, it was hard for me to picture what was going on sometimes. The reason I stuck with this is because the love interest is the type of guy character that appeals to me: the brooding, mysterious, sexy James Dean type.
