Synopsis: It all starts when Nick asks Norah to be his girlfriend for five minutes. He only needs five minutes to avoid his ex-girlfriend, who's just walked in to his band's show. With a new guy. And then, with one kiss, Nick and Norah are off on an adventure set against the backdrop of New York City and smack in the middle of all the joy, anxiety, confusion, and excitement of a first date.

Just brilliant. As always the book is better then the movie. The movie made me tear off my nails and eat them it (figuratively) it was so painful. I dont think Ive ever been truly bored to tears. The book made up for it. The book always makes everything so much better. This book was slow at the beginning but the end made up for it. It really showed that things arent as they seem. Granted I gaged a bit when Norah talked about Tukan Olam which is a jewish idea that the world is broken and we need to put the pieces back together again. I really enjoyed that the story showed the true feelings of the characters. It wasnt some cheesy novel where all they wanted to do is fall in love. THis was a great well written story.

Synopsis: Very LeFreak has a problem: she's a crazed technology addict. Very can't get enough of her iPhone, laptop, IMs, text messages, whatever. If there's any chance the incoming message, call, text, or photo might be from her supersecret online crush, she's going to answer, no matter what. Nothing is too important: sleep, friends in mid-conversation, class, a meeting with the dean about academic probation. Soon enough, though, this obsession costs Very everything and everyone. Can she learn to block out the noise so she can finally hear her heart? 

God this book was hilarious. But the twist also left me in a state of O.o. I was like, "Okay then was NOT expecting THAT!" Im not gonna say anything. No warnings. Or else I may ruin the book *seals lips shut* I just know I was like, "Would I almost kill some one over the death of my laptop?" By the end of the book I was strongly considering sending myself to ESCAPE. Yeah the book really gets to ya. Sadly I was annoyed that the book was slow at the beginning. Hate that sometimes *insert sigh* But I loved how Very was sorta just like stuck in the world of technology barely reacting with the outside world. Or how she almost killed someone *winks* Loved this story. It will really connect with all readers, no matter how addicted to technology you are. You could be a simple texter, this story STILL applies to you. This is worth the 20 dollars. Ignore the slow beginning. Love the twists and turns at the end :)
