So one day Dash goes into his favourite bookstore and while browsing old books, he finds a red Moleskin with a set of instructions that will take him all over New York to find 'the girl in his head'... if he dares.

This was a quick, cute read for the weekend :) I liked Lily's voice better, and although at first I thought Dash was a brat, by the end of the book I found him quite dashing, too. It was very interesting to see both Dash and Lily get out of their comfort zones through the dares, and by doing that getting more comfortable in their own skins (not that Dash had problem with that anyway, but still, the boy does do some growing up).

One thing I didn't like about this book is that the supporting characters were very plain and on-dimensional. You have the clown best friend, the overprotective parents (the way they treat Lily was beyond offensive), the self-centred brother, and I could go on forever. The other thing that bothered me was the vocabulary - seriously, it was like watching an episode of Dawson's Creek, I've never met 17-year-olds who talk like that.

But all in all, I think it's a very recommendable book for a lazy Sunday :)
