180 Seconds by Jessica Park

Summary

Some people live their entire lives without changing their perspective. For Allison Dennis, all it takes is 180 seconds…

After a life spent bouncing from one foster home to the next, Allison is determined to keep others at arm’s length. Adopted at sixteen, she knows better than to believe in the permanence of anything. But as she begins her third year in college, she finds it increasingly difficult to disappear into the white noise pouring from her earbuds.

One unsuspecting afternoon, Allison is roped into a social experiment just off campus. Suddenly, she finds herself in front of a crowd, forced to interact with a complete stranger for 180 seconds. Neither she, nor Esben Baylor, the dreamy social media star seated opposite her, is prepared for the outcome.

When time is called, the intensity of the experience overwhelms Allison and Esben in a way that unnerves and electrifies them both. With a push from her oldest friend, Allison embarks on a journey to find out if what she and Esben shared is the real thing—and if she can finally trust in herself, in others, and in love.



My Thoughts

This is not a new book but it is new to me!  I went to a used book store while on vacation and found this gem.  I am so extremely glad I did!  I loved it!

While there were things here and there that I may not have found to be perfect, I loved so much of this book!  This book was one that I didn't want to put down!  I flew through it!

This book is one of the reasons that I love going to used book stores.  I usually find such wonderful books that I wouldn't have found otherwise.
