The Infinite Moment Of Us

The Infinite Moment Of Us by Lauren Myracle, 316 pages


Wren is just graduating high school and instead of going to college in town, as her parents expect, she is planning to defer college for a year and travel to Guatemala to help teach English to young children.  She is dreading telling her parents but she needs to get away, to become her own person.  Charlie is also graduating college and plans to attend Georgia Tech.  His foster family is wonderful but Charlie has been let down so many times, he doesn’t trust himself enough to completely let himself be a part of the family, except for Dev.  Even though Dev is also a foster child, he has whole-heartedly accepted this family as his own and Dev is the only one that Charlie truly calls family.  This summer, Wren and Charlie officially meet, get to know each other, and fall in love.  This is the story of their summer, their experiences with first love, and their journey to find themselves.  This is definitely a book about relationships and love, so it will probably appeal more to teen girls.  I enjoyed it but it has some pretty explicit sex scenes so it’s probably a book to recommend to older teens and might have some of that new adult crossover appeal.
