Naomi and Ely have grown up across the hall from each other in their Manhattan apartments. They have been together forever and know every detail about each other. Naomi knows that she and Ely will grow up to be married, have children, and live happily ever after.
Even if Ely is gay.
However, as many of us find out, life rarely turns out the way people plan. Parents don't always stay married, we don't always marry the person we love the most, people don't always keep promises, boys don't always love girls, and soul mates don't really exist. No matter how much you think they do. No matter how desperately you want them to. Life just doesn't happen that way. And really, should it?
This story is told in chapters of varying points of view. Your heart races, it aches, and it loves while you are brought into the world of lovable but flawed characters.
One of the biggest questions that comes up again and again is: How does one go on with life when everything they once knew and once planned on is no longer possible?

i was hoping the book would be a bit more nick and norah-ish, being from the same authors, but it was different than i had expected. i liked it, but i found myself losing interest occasionally. it was a pretty good read, though.
