A "quirky" little love story for teens. Don't expect anything earth shattering, but this book was fun. Set in the 1990's before texting, tweeting and posting what you had for lunch on Facebook. Two teens pop in a AOL cd for twenty free hours of internet into their new computer and the fun, or drama, begins. Emma and Josh have been best friends forever and now they spend every day on the internet looking at Facebook, the only problem, Facebook hasn't been invented. They are looking into their future and every little thing they do in the present adds a little ripple to what happens to their lives. Marriages, children, jobs, they see it all. The idea for this story was great, and I've read other books by these authors, but this book doesn't quite live up to their other works.
