About the book

An irresistible story from Kasie West that explores the timeless question: What do you do when you fall for the person you least expect?When Autumn Collins finds herself accidentally locked in the library for an entire weekend, she doesn’t think things could get any worse. But that’s before she realizes that Dax Miller is locked in with her.Autumn doesn’t know much about Dax except that he’s trouble. Between the rumors about the fight he was in (and that brief stint in juvie that followed it) and his reputation as a loner, he’s not exactly the ideal person to be stuck with. Still, she just keeps reminding herself that it is only a matter of time before Jeff, her almost-boyfriend, realizes he left her in the library and comes to rescue her.Only he doesn’t come. No one does.Instead it becomes clear that Autumn is going to have to spend the next couple of days living off vending-machine food and making conversation with a boy who clearly wants nothing to do with her. Except there is more to Dax than meets the eye.As he and Autumn at first grudgingly, and then not so grudgingly, open up to each other, Autumn is struck by their surprising connection. But can their feelings for each other survive once the weekend is over and Autumn’s old life, and old love interest, threaten to pull her from Dax’s side?

    I think Kasie West is one of my favorite contemporary writers now. It's the second of her books I listened to on audio and I loved it. The characters we're well written and all of them had some kind of a character development. The anxiety representation (also TW for anxiety) was done very well, at least as far as I can tell. The story felt natural and relatable. 5 stars from me, I'm looking forward to read more books by this author.

    I haven't read young adult for a while now but I have enjoyed most of Kasie Wests novels and have been looking forward to this book. Being stuck in a library over night definitely sounds like a dream come true for a bookworm, but Autumn isn't too happy about it. Once she realises that she isn't alone, she and Dax are trying to adjust to the situation. I really enjoyed the library setting and how Autumn and Dax are getting to know each other better. Overall the book had some nice twists and some lengthy bits but it's a very cute story and romance which I enjoyed a lot. Kasie Wests writing style is easy and fast-paced as usual and just fun to read.

    Ich fand die Handlung klang nach etwas anderem und die Autorin weiß wirklich, wie man eine Geschichte spannend, witzig und originelle gestaltet. Definitiv ein tolles Buch für ein paar entspannte Lesestunden. Es liest sich durch die einfache Sprache auch super schnell zu Ende. Von mir gibt’s eine Empfehlung!
