Witty,sharp-tonged and sarcastic, Lindsay brings out the side of Colin he hasn&#8217;t experienced before. As Lindsay slowly drags Colin away from the thoughts of K-19 (the latest Katherine who tore Colin&#8217;s heart into tiny little shreds) , Colin begins to see the light of a whole different world &#8211; with Lindsay in it.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I enjoyed this book immensely- light and funny, yet ties in the realistic mind of a teenage boy (well more accurately, a prodigy) with relatable thoughts and actions. I had especially loved how Hassan acted! Even as a supporting character, Hassan never fails to leave an impression on the reader. A true friend indeed, as Hassan supports Colin whole-heartedly with crazy inside jokes humorous remarks, you can&#8217;t help but notice his loyal and caring perspective towards Colin.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Like what you read?
