The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight (Jennifer E. Smith)

****

         Though it might seem suspicious, Hadley Sullivan didn't mean to miss the flight to her father's second wedding, where she will be a bridesmaid for a woman she's never met.  While she waits for the next flight to London, Hadley meets a charming British boy named Oliver.  By some twist of fate, the two end up sitting together on the flight.  Hadley and Oliver discuss everything from their favorite colors (blue and green) to their beliefs on love.  When they part ways in London, Hadley knows she has feelings for Oliver.  Unfortunately, she doesn't know if she'll ever see him again.  He never even told her his last name.

          The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight was a cute, quick read.  I was intrigued as soon as I saw the title, and I'm glad I picked it up.  I enjoyed the plot and the characters, especially Oliver and Hadley.  I even found myself laughing a little, which doesn't usually happen when I'm reading.  The book was light over all, but it wasn't so cheerful that it got boring.  Though it was pretty obvious how the book was going to end (check out the title!) I was glad that there were twists that made me question how everything would turn out.  This sweet story would be a great read if you're looking for a good plot with a positive ending.
