I love that Colasanti has it set at the Jersey Shore and even though it isn't my Jersey Shore, it was still fun to read about it. I dig his unconventional/artist vibe and his love of 80s music, but when he tries to convince Skye that The New Kids on the Block are a talented musicians, I rolled my eyes a bit.įor me, the best part of All I Need is the setting. It doesn't help that I found Seth to be a little weird and not in a good way. I'm sure if I were in high school I would have loved their relationship, but older readers may want a bit more in All I Need. However, I found their relationship to be a little too immature for me to really find it swoon-worthy. Both come from very different backgrounds, but they hit it off instantly in other words, cue the insta-love. Her parents have a gorgeous house at the Jersey Shore whereas, Seth's family has more of a bungalow, his parents are separated and they aren't sure how they will pay for his college tuition. As fate would have it, they both meet up next summer at the shore, but can they get past their differences enough to make their relationship work? Susane Colasanti's All I Need is a light beach read that will make teenage girls swoon. Seth spends his first year of college still wondering about Skye and Skye spends her time back at home thinking about the boy who got away. When they were supposed to meet to exchange information, something happens and they miss each other.

Both are optimistic that they can make it work and keep in touch, but things take a turn for the worse. The only problem is that Skye is still in high school and Seth is heading off to college in Philadelphia, which means while Skye is worrying about high school drama, Seth has more serious concerns like how to pay for college. Just as she had hoped, she meets Seth and they have undeniable chemistry they just get each other completely. Skye, a hopeless romantic, is attending the last beach party of the summer with the hopes that she will finally meet someone.
