Of course Clare made a list. She creates lists for everything. That’s just how she is. But tonight is Clare and Aidan’s last night before college and this list will decide their future, together or apart. It takes them on a rollercoaster ride through their past – from the first hello in science class to the first conversation at a pizza joint, their first kiss at the beach and their first dance in a darkened gymnasium – all the way up to tonight. A night of laughs, fresh hurts, last-minute kisses and an inevitable goodbye. But will it be goodbye forever or goodbye for now?

As Young Adult authors go, Jennifer is up there with being one of my favourite authors, her lighthearted tales of young love provide captivating and entertaining reading, with handsome leads and strong willed females.

The story is about Clare and Aidan, a couple who are spending their last night together before they go their separate ways as they go off to university. As they spend their last few hours together, Clare compiles a list of all the places that meant something to them during their two year relationship and the pair of them have to decide if they will continue their relationship now that there will be so much distance between them. But, as they embark on their nostalgic journey down memory lane, the young couple are distracted by their friends escapades.

Aidan and Clare are a wonderful couple that make for sweet reading as they struggle with their emotions and decisions of whether they can survive long distance relationships. Clare is controlling in a good way, wanting her and Aidan’s last night together to be perfect. She makes a list of places that meant a lot to her and Aidan, from first meetings to first kisses, she thinks mainly with her head, trying to figure out the practicalities of her relationship, whereas Aidan wears his heart on his sleeve, he’s open about feelings from the very beginning. He’s passionate and witty and with this combination plus Clare’s sensible way of carrying on, their last few hours together make for emotional and bittersweet reading.

With Jennifer’s fresh style of writing, an eye-catching cover and witty dialogue, ”Hello, Goodbye And Everything In Between’ is an earnest and smart story about love surviving the distance and was impossible to put down.
