This book tells the story of a high school boy falling in love. The author does a great job letting you into the mind of the main character. Dante, the teenage boy and main character, feels things deeply but quietly. He notices a girl in class and is drawn to her. I love how the story centers on the young mans viewpoint and yet you get to know the other characters as well. Even as an adult reading this story you can relate to the emotions the characters feel. The girl Dante is attracted to is Helen. She comes alive in the pages with her well written responses to Dante's advances. Her family life is an intricate part of the story and helps you understand her character even better. She has an adorable younger sister, Maristella, whose interaction with Dante is priceless. The story itself starts with Dante waking up and very excited about the day ahead. The rest of the book is all about the event that takes up his day. The author does not split the scenes with actual chapters but you are never lost as you read. When you are not on the journey with Dante you are reading about how this day came to be. The book does a great job at describing the building relationship between Dante and Helen and finishes with a satisfying ending. You want the story to go on so you can see how these two are living now. There is no real spiritual value to the book. God is mentioned but not explained or accepted. This book will remind you that everyone has his own story to tell.
