Better than book 2, but still not great

Bullet point review:
--The story was utterly predictable, but an easy read.
-- I liked it better than "It Had to be You" because while there was a really big mistake that made, compared to the previous book the characters did not put themselves in compromising situations as often.
-- There's an important message about Huntington's Disease in the novel, and while that struggle was appreciable, I hoped that it could be used more powerfully.
--Honestly, Max's thoughts and reactions regarding Grace just really seemed unrealistic to me. Sure guys may have that kind of reaction/those kinds of thoughts occasionally, but it really just seemed like a bunch of stuff written into the novel so girls could sigh and dream about the unrealistic guy they're never going to meet.




All in all, not a horrible book, but it wasn't terrific either.
