She’s sure Jeff will realize that he left her behind and come racing back to rescue her, any minute now.Only he doesn’t come.

"4.75 -<br/><br/>I really enjoyed rereading this one. I was actually searching for this type of story and I'm glad I found it. <br/><br/>The story felt more like a slice of life than a romance most likely because of how realistic it is. I would describe it as sweet with real life problems. I thought the pacing was well done. <br/><br/>I did like the main character but I didn't like the "everybody is my friend or likes me" attitude she had for a long part of the story. I do wish that the author explained her anxiety better because it was how I connected to her and how it was described was vague. <br/><br/>The love interest was pretty well done. I liked the way the author had him react to the main character over time. <br/><br/>The writing was good and felt pretty satisfying to me. One thing that she might need to fix (I'm not for sure on this) is her descriptions. She has a lot of character thoughts, which was good, but didn't include brief scene descriptions. <br/><br/>Enjoyable and a good "stuck in the library" read."
