Her love for romance is really woven into the story, so it doesn’t feel out of place or very preachy. She discusses how reading romance also made her feel empowered and comfortable talking about sex. She muses about the fact that romance as a genre centers women in a way that other media does not, and yet people often treat it with disdain. A Discussion of RomanceĪ brief note on the views about romance in the story: In the book, Rowan loves romance novels and has written one herself. I’m kind of a sucker for enemies-to-lovers stories anyway, but this one had this perfect mix of wit, awkwardness, self-doubt, vulnerability, and passion. But what makes TODAY TONIGHT TOMORROW really magical, though, is the relationship between Rowan and Neil themselves. The contest gave the story a straightforward structure and high stakes.
It’s a race to win a prize of $5000, which both Rowan and Neil fiercely need. Most of the book centers around a contest called The Howl, in which the whole senior class participates in a kind of photo scavenger hunt all around Seattle.
And most of all, it’s desperately romantic. The story made me rethink my feelings on romance as a reading genre. TODAY TONIGHT TOMORROW is packed with the kind of snappy banter that I adore. THE HATING GAME meets NICK AND NORAH’S INFINITE PLAYLIST by way of Morgan Matson in this unforgettable romantic comedy about two rival overachievers whose relationship completely transforms over the course of twenty-four hours. Tomorrow…maybe she’s already fallen for him. And, perhaps, this boy she claims to despise might actually be the boy of her dreams. But after learning a group of seniors is out to get them, she and Neil reluctantly decide to team up until they’re the last players left-and then they’ll destroy each other.Īs Rowan spends more time with Neil, she realizes he’s much more than the awkward linguistics nerd she’s sparred with for the past four years. When Neil is named valedictorian, Rowan has only one chance at victory: Howl, a senior class game that takes them all over Seattle, a farewell tour of the city she loves. While Rowan, who secretly wants to write romance novels, is anxious about the future, she’d love to beat her infuriating nemesis one last time. Rowan Roth and Neil McNair have been bitter rivals for all of high school, clashing on test scores, student council elections, and even gym class pull-up contests.
