Finally! 62% in and I finally know what Orion is. Took long enough. Boy, was I wrong. I was leaning towards alien.

Finally! 62% in and I finally know what Orion is. Took long enough.

OMG, I think I just had a stroke. "Ireland Quinn Brady. You are exceptional and beautiful and everything I wish I could be. I cant believe that you happened to me, and I promise every tomorrow we have together will be better than the last. This I will tell you over and over and over again until I take my last breath. I love you."

So this girl hates her name. She complains it for the whole first chapter and how her parents need to be commited. Her name is Ireland which I happen to think is awesome! She wishes she could go by her middle name, Quinn, and I am thinking, why dont you? Idiot. Her brother signs her up at her new school under Quinn and she is thrilled. Then she meets a hot guy and refuses to tell him her name. But his name is Orion?!

OMG!

I don't normally like first person novels. In fact I find the characters annoying and self obsessed. But with this book, I fell in love with the main character right from the first paragraph. She is funny, witty, pessimistic without being annoyingly overly negative. I'm not finished reading but I'm confident I will love the end as much as I love the beginning. This is one author to keep your eyes on. She's going far!
