Book Review: First Love by James Patterson and Emily Raymond

Book Review:  First Love by James Patterson and Emily Raymond

James Patterson has always been one of my favorite authors when I want an action packed adventure, a mystery, or a fun romance.  First Love is another one of those books.  

Summary by Goodreads:


Axi Moore is a "good girl": She studies hard, stays out of the spotlight, and doesn't tell anyone that what she really wants is to run away from it all. The only person she can tell is her best friend, Robinson--who she also happens to be madly in love with.

When Axi impulsively invites Robinson to come with her on an unplanned cross-country road trip, she breaks the rules for the first time in her life. But the adventure quickly turns from carefree to out-of-control...

A remarkably moving tale with its origins in James Patterson's own past,First Love is testament to the power of first love--and how it can change the rest of your life.


If you are a fan of James Patterson's romance books like Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas, this one was as fast-paced and enjoyable as the rest. The chapters are short, the writing is simple, and the story always catches me right away. I did feel a little bit like I was reading a different version of The Fault in our Stars since the character's both have had cancer, but enjoyed it nonetheless. Another one I can't wait to share with students after winter break.
