I liked this book, but I feel like I have read it before. There are aspects to this book that I feel that people need to read, (survivors guilt) but maybe not in this book.

I had the opportunity to read an advanced copy from the publisher via Netgalley.

If There's No Tomorrow had me hooked from page 1. Armentrout has written a story that anyone can relate to. Our choices and the way that we handle the outcomes are always important.

This was a great book dealing with guilt, grief, forgiveness, friendships, and love. I absolutely loved it and shed many tears...in a good way! Armentrout definitely gets the emotions going.

I'm glad I also have If There's No Tomorrow pre-ordered. I definitely look forward to a re-read and having this beauty on my shelf.

It is the weekend before her senior year and Lena is ready. She wants to spend time with her friends, pick her college and hopefully let her best friend know that she wants to be more than friends. Then she makes a choice that changes everything and now she isn’t looking forward to tomorrow. How can Lena go on with her life after what happened? Would Sebastian be able to forgive her if he is told the truth?

If There’s No Tomorrow is a stand-alone novel that expresses a timely, yet tragic story. Lena is trying to deal with love, guilt and grief all at the same time, yet she doesn’t want to confide in her friends, just in case they would hate her afterward. Armentrout takes a very difficult situation and explores the actions and consequences that led to the tragedy. If There’s No Tomorrow is an outstanding novel that should be moved to the top of everyone’s TBR pile.

Another great novel by Jennifer L. Armentrout. I read this very quickly and I enjoyed reading the story because of the very strong and important message the author was making about the value of life and how we aren't always guaranteed a tomorrow, which is something we sometimes forget. The story of Lena and her normal teenage existence starts off with a girl heading toward senior year pining for the boy next door and enjoying her friends. When circumstances cause Lena to end up in a situation where she has to make a choice, things change for Lena and all of those she cares about. I liked the way the author handled the aftermath of her choice and how Lena's mental wellness was discussed. The heartbreak of the story is balanced by hope and the power of learning from mistakes. Well done and will be added to my classroom library and recommended to my high school students. Thank you netgalley for an ARC of this novel for my honest opinions.

Lena, just your average teen who wants to make it through her senior year and who secretly loves her best friend Sebastian, almost loses it all after a very bad decision.

Definitely a "teen issues" book with a classic, YA male protagonist who is the epitome of male beauty who of course is in love with the self-proclaimed "average" and "nothing special" female lead. Teens will enjoy this emotional read.

Very well written. The characters keep you on your toes and you can't wait to turn the page fast enough!

Absolutely love all of this authors work! This was so emotional and heartfelt. Every teen and parent needs to read this book. I wish I had read this book when I was a teen. I had a lot of tragic accidents happen at my high school, where this book put in prospective how others were dealing with this tragedy. I would definitely recommend. Thanks for the opportunity.

Powerful, well written book. The concepts are important for teens to grapple with, and the love story is addicting.

As some others have already said, it's really hard to review this book without giving away the big event because the big event is the big theme and message surrounding this whole book.

This book is about how one decision, one moment can change your whole life. How listening to your instincts and putting your foot down even when you don't want to be "that" person can mean the difference between life and death.


I think what really made this book difficult to read was that Lena is most of us. She had great friends, a crush on a guy, went to parties, and did everything typical 17 year old girls do. There wasn't anything spectacular or different about her. Nothing stuck out about her that could have made this situation any different. She was you, she was me.

She did what many of us have done many times. The difference between some of us and her? Something happened. That one time.

"You know what happened, and what could've happened but didn't. That's never going to change. You're going to have to learn to live with the decisions you've made, accept them, learn from them, grow from them, and become a better person because of them."

Lena's journey through her grief and guilt was heartbreaking. Her progress was slow going and her life fell apart, but she managed to push through. I really REALLY liked that she took responsibility for her actions even if my knee jerk reaction was to say "it's not you fault", but it IS. As Dr. Perry tells her, "it is partially your fault."

"...but I hadn't done everything in my power to stop Cody. So I wasn't legally responsible. I hadn't technically done it. I was, however, morally responsible."

Reading those words made my heart break for her.

This is not a romance. There is a romantic aspect to it, yes, but that is not even remotely what this story is about. Everyone needs to read this, especially young teenagers. Listen to your instincts, put your foot down, and protect yourself.
