Smith, Jennifer E. The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight, 256 pgs. Poppy, 2012. $17.99. Language: PG (5 swears; 0 'f'); Sexual Content: PG; Violence: PG.
When Hadley Sullivan misses her flight, she should be upset. However, all it means is less time having to watch her father marry another woman. And when she ends up next to Oliver, a gallant British boy with a great sense of humor, things get even better. They spend the entire night talking as their plane crosses the ocean. But when they arrive in London, things go wrong and they are separated...perhaps forever. Will love have another chance, or is Hadley doomed to one great plane flight conversation with a boy she'll never see again?
The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight is a fun, fast (and clean) story, and I wouldn't hesitate to add it to my library shelves. The romance between Hadley and Oliver is well-developed and interesting, and the subplots dealing with their families add further tension. The appealing cover and witty title should help it fly off the shelves until word-of-mouth catches on.
