"Oh my. I cannot believe it took me this long to read this book. When I first heard about it, I was like no. But oh my gosh. This book was so well written. It's about damn time I read about a girl who speaks her mind. I cannot give this book enough praise. I just loved it so so much."

" Very different from the movie but I enjoyed it a lot, made me laugh. "
— Nelly, 1/24/2014" I saw the movie and it was quite disappointing, so I figured I'd give Rachel Cohn the benefit of the doubt and give the book a chance. Disappointed, again. The way it is written - one chapter in Nick's prospective explaining his thoughts and words, and the next chapter in Norah's prospective, thoughts, and words. There's a reason why not many other authors write like that, it's shit. Kat Dennings fits Norah's character, but Michael Cera and Nick.. no.. he is too dorky and boring I couldn't paint the picture in my head. Perhaps that's why I didn't enjoy the book, or the movie. If you want an honest opinion, don't waste your time reading the book. If you want a lie, the book was great, read the book. "
— Cody, 1/24/2014" A quick and enjoyable read! "
— Sonya, 1/1/2014" This book is BORING. The characters are like super emo, I hated them. It all happens in one night, and they change sooo much that it's impossible to believe, plus the end was like "that's it?". Trully I didn't lauugh, not even once! I hate it. "
— Apen, 12/27/2013" To explain how much I loved this book, I need to quote a different book and say: "in that moment I swear we were infinite". And that's it. "
— Rhainvow, 12/22/2013" Way better than the movie!!! So funny and sweet. "
— Willa, 11/30/2013" It was a little blah for me. I pretty much skimmed over it, I'm not sure why. Maybe because the situation just felt weird and uncomfortable. "
— Sarah, 11/9/2013" It is fun to read. Especially fun because it's set in New York and its music scene. The place I dream about and expect to be everything it's said to be when I get there. "
— Erica, 10/15/2013" Every teenager needs to read this book. It's funny, crazy, romantic, and best of all has lots of great music mentions! "
— Presley, 9/30/2013" I liked only last 30 pages. "
— Kaja, 9/26/2013" I really enjoyed it. It was easy to read and I related with the characters. Great for breaks between study sessions. I recommend. "
— Nevena, 4/25/2013" Nick and Norah take turns chronicling their thoughts and actions the night they meet. Chock full of music references, punk culture, and F bombs. "
— Mrs, 9/24/2012" I thought this book was so sweet, just a bit short, I so wished it was longer. I also like the movie :) "
— Blake, 6/10/2012" An amazing novel. I loved the musical references. I loved how the author showed Nick's and Norah's lust. Absolutely amazing. "
— Semina, 2/9/2012" Exteremly interesting and fast-paced and different. It's quite "sensual" to say the least, so maybe not for the shy at heart. "
— Julie, 8/1/2011" Completely different to the film but still very enjoyable! "
— Dorota, 7/31/2011" Very clever. Love this author and will check out all her books. "
— Melissa, 5/23/2011" Finally got around to reading this.. "
— Erin, 5/18/2011" Edgy, fast-paced, frank YA written by 2 authors. <br/> <br/>Loved the concept and the individual voices. "
— Nicola, 5/17/2011" Blech! All tell, no show. "
— Caitlin, 5/14/2011" Children of the 80s will love the music. "
— Rose, 5/12/2011" Way better than the movie!!! So funny and sweet. "
— Willa, 5/7/2011" This has got to be the best book i ever have and will read. "
— Ange, 5/3/2011" I was with the book until the very end. Norah is very very difficult to like/relate to; plus she thinks Green Day is better than The Beatles. It was an interesting read at least. "
— Jess, 4/28/2011" It's sort of embarrassing how engrossed I was while reading this book. I honestly, truly, absolutely love it. "
