Who would have guessed that four minutes could change everything?The Statistical Probability Of Love At First Sight is a cute, fun, very quick read that I adored. Jennifer E. Smith has me up late into the night reading. It really is one of those books that you just have to read for yourself.
Today should be one of the worst days of seventeen-year-old Hadley Sullivan's life. She's stuck at JFK, late to her father's second wedding, which is taking place in London and involves a soon to be step-mother that Hadley's never even met. Then she meets the perfect boy in the airport's cramped waiting area. His name is Oliver, he's British, and he's in seat 18C. Hadley's in 18A.
Twists of fate and quirks of timing play out in this thoughtful novel about family connections, second chances and first loves. Set over a 24-hour-period, Hadley and Oliver's story will make you believe that true love finds you when you're least expecting it
Hadley is not a happy character. She is sad, confused, lonely, and she feels abandoned by her father. She is not looking forward to his wedding and so when she misses her flight she isn't too torn up about it. Especially not when a cute British boy named Oliver ends up being on her new flight. Oliver has his own demons that you don't immediately find out about. He still manages to be sweet and funny with Hadley even though his problems are a lot bigger than hers. These two were perfect for each other.
I think my favorite thing about this book is that the whole story happens in one 24-hour time period. It really is a story of love at first sight and how it plays out. Also, in this case, I wouldn't call it insta-love because that is a bad thing and that was not the case with this book. It was a very good thing! Also, a lot can happen in the course of one day and Hadley and Oliver learned a lot about each other in that time.
Overall, The Statistical Probability Of Love At First Sight is one of my new favorite contemporary romance stories. It really is the perfect book to sit down and read straight through. And it will leave you wondering if maybe you could find your own love at first sight. =)
