This is a poignant, first-love story which also takes you travelling around the globe and enjoying good music and book descriptions. Older readers find it nostalgic and relate to the earnestness of first sexual encounters because the story is based in the 1960s. Younger readers like the humour of the aliens and the way that the characters talk. The characters are very engaging and the family dynamics are realistic and show some differences in parenting from then to now. All of the test readers said that this book made them laugh many times and cry at least once.
