Field Notes on Love

I enjoyed Field Notes on Love by Jennifer Smith, but I didn’t love it as much as some reviews would have led me to believe I would. It’s a love story, obviously, about a boy (part of a sextuplet), who has always done everything with his brothers and sisters. This summer he is planning a trip with his girlfriend across the US by train until the girlfriend breaks up with him. She kindly gifts him the tickets, but, since they are in her name, he posts a listing to find another woman with the girlfriend’s name to travel with him. I won’t say anything else. It’s a sweet story, but a little too predictable. Perfect for the beach, but a bit fluffier than I might usually choose.
