Hopeful fiction with a healthy dose of romance.

This is a cute book, but I'll be honest -- if my sisters hadn't insisted that I read the series, I might not have finished this book.

There aren't a lot of likable characters, and the journal format doesn't allow you to get deep into the head of Emma.
