Along for the Ride = Read

4/25/2010

So I finished Along for the Ride.  Well, I finished it a week ago.  Life has a way of getting busy, doesn't it.  Anyway, in the end I liked it.  I love the references to life as compared to riding a bike: "Get back on the bike," one character says to our heroine as she is about to give up on love.  Isn't that what life is about, falling and getting back up again?  Makes sense.

I just love the teenage relationship in the book.  I attribute it to the romantic in me.  There's something innocent about young love.  Not that it was innocent when I was going through young love, but now I always get that warm feeling whenever I read about first glances, first touches and first kisses.  Then I remember that at any age they can be intoxicating, but when your young and have your whole life ahead of you, it brings another element of excitement to it.  At least that's how I think of it.

So the club meets on May 5th to discuss.  Check back to see what we had to say and what the next book on the agenda is.  Til then remember, get back on the bike.
