Two straight-edge kids with nothing left to lose find themselves suspiciously on the path of love, entangled in a long New York City night overflowing with surprisingly intense kisses, hardcore shows, and endless potential. Still devastated after being dumped by his hot girlfriend, Nick attempts to make her jealous at a club by asking some random girl to be his girlfriend for five minutes. The girl, Norah, is plucky, defensive, and irresistible. With alternate chapters written by popular young-adult authors Rachel Cohn and David Levithan, this fast-paced, hormone-spewing novel shares both the bitterness and the incandescent wonder of love. A Kirkus Best Children's Book of 2006, this enticing work was made into a film in 2008.
