I LOVED this book. It was such a delightfully readable rom-com. I'm really looking forward to the author's interview on our site!

I LOVED this book. It’s been a while since I’ve read a young adult novel I have loved this much and it was so nice.

Neil and Rowan have been high school rivals since he beat her in an essay contest freshman year. Since then they have pushed each other and competed in every area. Rowan hates Neil. That is until she decides to work with him to best him one last time during the Senior Howl scavenger hunt.

This book wasn’t missing a thing for me. I loved Rowan. She was smart, loved romance novels, comfortable in her own body/sexuality, Jewish, but yet flawed. I related to a lot of who she was so that did help. Neil was just unlikable enough at the beginning that the more you got to know him, the easier it was to like him. Their banter was on point and I appreciated that sometimes they stumbled over that too.

Also, the Senior Howl? Oh man. Every high schooler that reads this book is gonna be mad their school doesn’t do this. Senior Howl is put on by the Junior class each year. They create a scavenger hunt throughout the city of Seattle and the winner gets a monetary prize made up of fundraisers the senior class has collected throughout the year. In addition to that, you are also given a name of a person you have to “kill” to eliminate them.

One of my favorite parts of this book was how good a job Solomon did making Seattle a character in and of itself. I love Seattle. I have visited twice and I have checked off a bunch of the touristy activities, as well as some more local ones. I was supposed to visit again this year, but wasn’t able to due to COVID. This book made me feel as though I was back there and not missing my trip after all.

Rowan is such a great character. She is driven and confident, but also full of self-doubt in what is going to happen after high school ends. Having grown up in a Jewish family, I do find it to be extra exciting when a main character is Jewish. I appreciated her struggle with being one of a handful of Jews in her high school and how, even though it wasn’t the number one part of her identity, it was still there and she still felt that discomfort at not fitting in. Add in that everyone has made fun of her love of romance novels, she feels like she has to hide a lot of herself to be accepted.

Now, this is everything I loved without even touching on the relationship between Neil and Rowan. Like I mentioned, I am a sucker for the enemies to lovers trope. Neil and Rowan have a history of being competitive which make the switch in their relationship so much more fun. You already know they have a lot in common because otherwise they wouldn’t be competitors. So it’s so satisfying once they realize that could be a good thing and they don’t have to hate each other.

What is there to not love about this book? Great main and secondary characters, wonderful character development, a fast moving storyline, and an amazing setting. If you love contemporary YA I highly recommend this book. I am definitely going to go back a read Solomon’s backlist because I greatly enjoyed her writing in this book.

I read Today Tonight Tomorrow in one sitting. Rachel Lynn Solomon tells a funny, romantic tale of high school rivals Neil McNair and Rowan Roth. The story is told from Rowan's point of view and opens on her last morning of high school. She finds a list of goals written by her fourteen-year-old self, including "take Neil McNair down". She's disturbed by the realization that she hasn't accomplished any of those goals. On a day that is already bittersweet, Rowan finds out her best friends are vacationing without her and she lost valedictorian to "McNightmare" her rival since Freshman year. Once the morning assembly is over, the seniors assemble for the HOWL - an intricate scavenger hunt developed by the Junior class. Seniors have to get photos of a list of Seattle landmarks and culture while hunting the other seniors. The last one "alive" with everything on the list wins and this year the prize is $5,000! Like everyone else, Rowan is in it to win it. When she overhears one of her classmates making awful comments about she and Neil, Rowan figures teaming with McNair is the best way to achieve her goal, and to beat him! She didn't plan on learning more about McNair than she had during the four years of highschool, and surprisingly liking what she learns.
Today Tonight Tomorrow is a love letter to Seattle as well. Solomon's descriptions of the city as the kids run all over to collect their photos are so detailed and enjoyable that you feel like you're participating as well. She also deals masterfully with the serious topics of anti-semitism, feminism and sexual/religious/race equality, as well as parental abuse. While dealing with and sharing their fears of leaving high school, Neil and Rowan learn they are not alone and gain a better understanding of the world as well as each other.
This is a delightful book - perfect for seniors but highschool students of any age. I plan to recommend this to EVERYONE!!!! Thanks so much for the opportunity to read the ARC - I really enjoyed it!

Author Rachel Lynn Solomon has created an authentic portrayal of saying goodbye to high school and the roller coaster of emotion that comes with ending this chapter in one’s life. Rowan Roth is an extremely relatable feminist character with perfectionist tendencies and a competitive side who learns to accept the inevitable changes in her life. The story itself always keeps the reader on their toes with the dynamics of the characters constantly changing in unexpected ways. There are also themes of women and religious empowerment, which have a heavy influence on both the characters and the plot. Today Tonight Tomorrow is especially perfect for 2020 graduates who didn’t get to experience this huge stepping stone in life, as well as readers who can’t put down a book about infuriatingly lovable enemies turned lovers.

*Warning: My opinions aren't always in alignment with what is popular. Considering the racial issues plaguing our country and the world right now, some of the opinions in this book review may come off as insensitive or harsh. I do not mean them as so. I am only addressing the characters in this book and statements made within and not a statement on racism or diversity as a whole.

Boy oh boy, where to begin? I guess let me start with the premise. Rowan and Neil have been competing against each other since freshman year. Neil won a book report that spurred Rowan's competitive side and the two have gone up against each other for nearly every grade, award, and position since leading up to Valedictorian. Part of their school's rituals is that the junior class creates a scavenger hunt game for the senior class called Howl which takes place between the last day of school and graduation. At first, Rowan sees this opportunity as one last chance to beat Neil, but when she hears Savannah (number 3 in their class) complaining to a group about how Rowan and Neil always win everything and how they need to team up to take them down, Rowan and Neil decide to pair up. Great idea. I love everything about this plot.

But the execution wasn't flawless for me.

Rowan and Neil were both complicated. Rowan is having trouble letting go of high school. She has a love for romance books and is writing one of her own now despite her parents, friends, and even Neil making fun of the genre. But I absolutely hated the political pieces involved that didn't do anything to enhance or advance the story. I'll discuss those more in a bit. Neil was so much more complex than Rowan originally thought. He had a reason beyond wanting to be the best that motivated his side of the competition with her. From his very appearance to the smallest details, I felt like Rachel Lynn Solomon addressed them all with him.

I despise politics in my books. I've mentioned before how I often read to escape the issues of real-life and so bringing politics into stories like this bring me down. I mean let's just throw in a checklist for political issues: vegetarian/vegan, gay rights, gender equality, diversity for diversity's sake, green, feminism, toxic masculinity, sexual freedom for women (for lack of a better term), marijuana usage, and probably more. I'm not going to address all of these political pieces because I've either addressed them before or simply for time's sake. But I feel like I can't let all of this slide. People how much louder can I scream to read what you like. Read what you want. I don't read books by a diverse group of authors about a diverse group of characters simply for that sake. I read books that the description sounds good to me without noting what the race or gender of the authors or characters is. I also take issue with feminism and male toxicity. While I feel strongly about supporting women (hello, I am one) I just don't relate with much of what feminist that I've been exposed to are championing in the name of women's rights. And I certainly don't agree with putting men down simply because women have been oppressed in the past. We don't punish one group of people simply because a different group of people has been oppressed in the past. Which ironically enough plays into a statement that Rowan made herself concerning her being Jewish.

-"People here go out of their way to try to make you feel comfortable, and by doing that, they sometimes alienate you even more."

This isn't exactly political but I also wanted to address another comment Rowan made regarding the Jewish community in Seattle. She laments that there are only 4 other Jewish kids (in her class or in her school, I can't remember which). I can certainly understand feeling yourself to be in a minority. I went to a small church growing up and a small school. And there was only one other kid close to my age in my church and thus in my school. But Rowan laments that there are only two synagogues in Seattle but churches are much more common. Her exact quote:

-In our city of nearly eight hundred thousand people, we get two. Within three blocks of my house, there are five churches.

And I just wondered when I was reading this, who is to "blame" for this? Who is responsible for building synagogues? Should non-Jewish people go around asking "hey, I noticed there are only two synagogues in the city, do you guys need us to build more for you?" I mean if the point is just to mention that the character feels isolated in this aspect of her life then fine I'll allow that, but you can't fault people who are in the majority (or simply not in your minority) for you feeling isolated. It isn't anyone's fault. This is one of those things that just is what it is. I guess I just felt like it wasn't clear why this was addressed in the book in this way because it came across as Rowan was "blaming" others for being different from her even while she champions diversity for diversity's sake in literature. Or maybe diversity for diversity's sake is simply about excluding the majority of any group.

And what is the most frustrating part to me is that even though these political stances were sprinkled through the entire book, they weren't what the majority of the book was about. And for the most part, they didn't drive the story or the characters so they were simply included because the author wanted to address them. Which makes sense given her mention of the 2016 election in her author's notes. Despite all of these things, the rest of the book was enjoyable.

I felt pulled in to the characters, their prior conflict, the game they were playing, and the hope that these two kids could figure things out. The process was definitely enjoyable. Rachel Lynn Solomon did a great job of establishing a history between Rowan and Neil. Yet things still progress so fast in the 24 hours that the book focuses on. We move from animosity to a fragile friendship to a crush to love. It's just a bit too fast even though the typical "I think I've loved you for a long time" line. And that's not to even mention the progression of their physical relationship. It's just too much too soon.

Quotes to support:
-While I love romance, I’ve never believed in the concept of soul mates, which has always seemed a little like men’s rights activism: not a real thing.

-Ms. Grable, who must only be in her late twenties, ensured our reading list was majority women and authors of color.

-She got me through my grandpa’s funeral in seventh grade, and I was the first person she came out to in ninth grade, when she said she’d only ever liked girls. The following year, Mara told both of us that she was bisexual and wanted to start using that label for herself.

-McNair insisted the English department needed new copies of A White Man in Peril (okay, the books have real titles, but that’s what they’re all about), while I argued we should use the money for books by women and authors of color.


-chivalry is outdated and I am not a fan

-As co-president, she campaigned for all-gender restrooms, and she also was responsible for helping the school become a little greener.

-My kingdom for more guys who can express physical affection without needing to justify their masculinity afterward.

-"...And then it’s so much worse for women. We’re told to shrug off compliments, to scoff when someone tells us we’re good at something. We shrink ourselves, convince ourselves what we’re creating doesn’t actually matter.”

-Good girls aren’t supposed to have sex, but if they don’t, they’re prudes, and if they do, they’re sluts.

That last quote is another thing. Society in the past has recognized that men are very physical and have written off men having multiple sexual partners as normal. And while it is true that there has been a disparity between the view of men versus women with multiple sexual partners, I don't think the answer is for women to take a cavalier attitude towards sex. Perhaps men need to take more responsibility for controlling themselves. Sex outside of marriage is a rampant cultural thing right now and I'm in the minority to think we could go back to that, but I don't think allowing more sexual promiscuity for women so that we match that of men is the answer.

Today Tonight Tomorrow had such a strong premise. I was pulled in to the characters, their histories, the possibilities for their future, and the game they were playing. But I was pulled out of the story time and time again over these political issues that the author wanted to include that had nothing to do with the story. So ultimately I'm torn in what my rating should be. In the end, I decided 3 Stars was the best match for my rating system. Have you read Today Tonight Tomorrow? What did you think? Let me know!

This was such an unexpected cute read that got me out of my head into a fun scavenger hunt and an enemies to friends, to lovers, read that I thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely one that will take you away, give you a good time and both relate and grow to love these two way overachievers that almost missed out on something great.
So glad I too, took a chance, dove in and had a great, heartwarming time.

For the last four years, Rowan Roth has competed, head to head, with Neil McNair. She always saw him as the enemy, but as she embarks on her very last opportunity to destroy him, by winning Howl, she finds herself coming to some rather startling realizations about him.

I am filing this one under Made-My-Face-Hurt and Made-My-Heart-Explode, because that is exactly what happened as I read this incredible book. I mean, in a word, the book was PERFECTION, and if I were to list all the things I adored about this book, it would take me days. Therefore, I will limit myself to five fantastic facts about this book.

1. This was a love letter to Seattle. Even if Rachel Lynn Solomon hadn't told me so in the end notes, I would have known this to be true. Solomon took me on a wonderful tour, and her affection for her city showed in every way. I may never have visited Seattle, but once I do, I will know all the things I need to see in person.

2. This was about saying goodbye. This was the end of an era for Rowan, and while many of her classmates would stay in-state for college, she would be flying clear across the country to begin her new chapter. It was bittersweet, and I could feel all her emotions, that were wrapped up in this night.

3. Rowen and Neil went to a stupendous high school. I would have loved to have had an event like Howl as my senior goodbye. I guess you need to know, that Howl was the annual scavenger hunt/assassin game organized by the student council. I had a fantastic time at the event, and I wasn't even playing. I must say, it was a brilliant way to have our characters say goodbye to high school and their hometown, and also a great way for them to bond. So. Much. Fun.

4. The romance was all sorts of gooey goodness. These two were so tailor made for each other, and I wanted to physically push them together, where they belonged. As they peeled back the layers, more and more was revealed, and even I started to regret that they wasted all those years fighting their magnetic attraction to one another. There were these super fun moments, these incredibly honest moments, and these very tender moments, all of which filled my heart with so much warmth and joy.

5. As a romance reader, I really appreciated Solomon taking on the genre's critics in this book. Rowen was an aspiring romance writer, but she felt like she had to keep it a secret, because of the way people look down on romance. But, the genre was defended, left and right, and that made this romance reader very happy.

I said five things, but I have to mention something that we Rachel Lynn Solomon fans will appreciate. I spotted two characters from her previous books in this story. It was funny, I noticed the second reference first, and then went back, because I thought a name looked familiar, and I was right! You all know I live for those "easter eggs", and oh, it delighted me.

If this is a preview of Solomon's upcoming adult contemporary romance, SIGN ME UP! This book hit all the right notes for me, and was a veritable treat to read. I have a lot of love for RLS's previous books, but this one, it owned me. Solomon always makes me cry, but for once, the tears were only the happy kind.

Today Tonight Tomorrow was a really fun enemies to lovers YA contemporary romance between two classmates, Rowan and Neil, who have spent their entire high school experience trying to out do each other. Rowan is giving one last chance to outshine Neil even if they have to team up to do it but the more time she spends with him the more she realizes maybe her feelings towards him aren't as negative as she thought.

This book took one of my favorite romance genres , enemies to lovers, and executed it perfectly in a YA setting. Our main characters are fantastic. Rowan is determined but a little bit of a mess but in the way all seniors end up being by the end of the year, making her so relatable. Neil was a complete sweetheart and I could perfectly picture his shy smiles and embarrassed blushes against all his freckles. Their banter back and forth made me chuckle, and their slow burn romance gave me butterflies. Ahh first loves {{sigh}}

Today Tonight Tomorrow is a well-rounded YA romance. The format of the book having text messages, fliers, and even school reports made the reading fun. Also, with Rowan being in love with romance novels and both her and Neil being Jewish, the story is really sex positive and has wonderful Jewish representation.

**Review will be posted on my blog on 7/18/20**

Thank you to Simon Pulse and NetGalley for giving me a chance to read this eARC.

My Reactions:

My Attention: caught

World Building: landmarks in Seattle – I’ve never been, so it was nice to learn the favorite local spots

Writing Style: loved the dialogue between Rowan and Neil

Bringing the Heat: whoa…🔥🔥🔥, definite sparks between them – and then some awkward teenage sex (which was actually sweet)

Crazy in Love: enemies to lovers

Creativity: love the HOWL game incorporated into the story

Mood: story made me go awww

Triggers: anti-semitism

My Takeaway: That boy you been hating so hard on might be the boy that you love. Also, it's okay to love romance novels!!

What I Liked:

*It’s a feel good, last day of high school, emotional, and yet sweet story! This author made me feel like I was in high school again and yeah…that’s been a little over two decades for me so I loved how happy this story made me feel.
*Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope and although this story takes place in one night, it works because Rowan and Neil have MAJOR history. They have competed against one another all throughout high school. They have been trying to best one another until the very end of high school! 😅 I loved their dialogue and I how the love to hate on each other. But I enjoyed seeing how finally for one night they can truly enjoy one another’s company. It was so cute and these two have sparks, I loved it!
*Rowan is a romance novel lover (YAY). She wants to be a romance novel writer but see people put her down about her love of the genre. I felt her on all of it. Why do we have to be shamed for reading what we love? It was nice to see her share her fears about what she really wanted to be.
*Neil…aww I like that he wasn’t the drop dead gorgeous hunky jock that’s the usual love interest. Nope, he’s a nerd, ambitious, competitive and loves his family. But there is a lot going on under his persona of co-president and valedictorian.
*This is a sex positive book which is really refreshing. Rowan has open dialogue with her parents about sex, isn’t afraid about knowing and having sex, she is informed and it’s awesome. Neil is the virgin in this case haha, which was sweet (when he blushes). I liked that their first time together was awkward and not perfect but sweet because they are so into each other.
*Another issue that was addressed in the book was Rowan being Jewish and how she dealt with it in school. I liked hearing her experiences because my kids are being raised Jewish (dad side), though I am Catholic, but we celebrate both holidays.
*Incorporating a Senior game on the last day of school called HOWL where they had to go around Seattle to do a scavenger hunt was awesome – it gave me so much insight into the city of Seattle, which I don’t know much about since I’ve never been. I felt the love for the city in this story.

Things That Made Me Go Hmm:

This is a sex positive book which I love so there is sex in it which totally fits the story – it’s awkward, sweet and realistic! But it appears right at the very end of the book and I think by then, even without that scene, the story would have been great. For me it wasn’t needed – I could already feel the fire between these two the moment they kissed. 😍 The sex scene is fairly quick and not very descriptive though. The kiss was what made my heart pitter-patter!

Final Thoughts:
I love that this book took place in a span of 24 hours but so much happened with the HOWL game giving me a tour around Seattle, the fun bantering between Rowan and Neil, the enemies to lovers trope, Rowan sharing her experiences about being Jewish and her feelings about wanting to be a writer – at times I was wondering how these kids fit ALL of this activity into one night, ah…youth! And speaking of youth, this book gave me all the feelings of last day of school, wondering about summer and going off to college (and it got me thinking about it all in this time of a pandemic where graduations were altered drastically 😞). All those feelings combined in this one book worked so beautifully.

I LOVED this! I've been a fan of Rachel Lynn Solomon since her hard hitting debut, You'll Miss Me When I'm Gone, and her switch to a more light romantic comedy was just as magical. It's really hard to successfully tackle a novel that takes place all in one day and this is probably the best I've ever read. 

This is the ultimate enemies-to-lovers relationship. For the past four years, Rowan and Neil have been in constant competition with each other to be the top of their class. As the night unfolds, they start to learn more about each other, things that they haven't told anyone else before. Despite working against each other their entire high school career, they don't really know much about one another.  

This was like a mini tour around Seattle as Neil and Rowan run around the city, playing this scavenger hunt/Assassin-type game for the senior class. Solomon did such a great job writing this love letter to Seattle and doing it with this kind of game was really clever. The pace of their relationship development was perfect—it felt very authentic. This is easily in my top reads of the year.

I found the book to be very exciting. There were parts where I got butterflies in my stomach. I definitely recommend this novel to young adults and high-schoolers who enjoy reading romance. I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN! My 7th grade daughter read this book as well, and devoured it in a day. She doesn't read often, and we have really struggled to find her a genre or a book that she loves. This was it! She's now asking if there are other books like this one out there to read.

Thank you so much to NetGalley for the ARC!

Today Tonight Tomorrow by Rachel Lynn Solomon was pretty good most of the time, but it's really hard for me to completely get into a book when I don't like the main character very much. In this case, Rowan was that character. She was selfish, superficial, and petty. Her friends deserved better. Neil deserved better. I loved Neil to bits though. He was smart, interesting, funny, and heaps more believable of a character than Rowan. I wish the story had been told from his point of view. I enjoyed the scavenger hunt. That's such a fun idea. I wish we would have done something like this when I graduated from high school. This was a good book to help pass the time, and I suppose with the coronavirus self isolations and quarantines going on right now, most of us need something to help pass the time. I liked the premise. I typically love enemies to more stories. Lots of people have enjoyed this one, but it wasn't for me this time. With that being said, the author's own bio states that the girls and women she writes about are "sometimes unlikable". In that regard, it was a success.

Really cute Enemies to lovers story!
I feel like this age is so funny with enemies to lovers because I totally related to these characters. I totally got the hating game vibes and i loved it!!!! It actually reminded me of a new movie I just watched where two students who hate each other and always compete actually end up liking each other :)



Very cute!
Thank you for the ARC!

5⭐️.

YA contemporary; enemies to lovers


🥇Q: what superlative would you give your high school self?

I randomly started Rachel Lynn Solomon’s Today Tonight Tomorrow one day last week when I thought I couldn’t get into any books. Then I couldn’t stop.

Rowan Roth & Neil McNair have been battling over high school achievements since freshman year & now that graduation is almost here, the ultimate prize—valedictorian—will be revealed. Rowan doesn’t get it, and when she realizes that she also hasn’t met any of the goals on her Guide to High School Success, she hinges all of her hopes and dreams on winning a Senior scavenger hunt.

Today Tonight Tomorrow has:

⭐️ A prickly heroine (but only with the hero. TBH, there is one occasion when I thought: ooof harsh). Rowan secretly wants to be a romance novelist & has lots of interesting—and relatable—thoughts on why women are shamed for reading and writing them.

⭐️ A highly freckled cinnamon roll hero with lots of secrets.

⭐️ Fantastic Jewish rep. Both leads are Jewish, something they discover in the book.

⭐️ A slow burn and a love letter to Seattle.

Today Tonight Tomorrow is sex-positive and funny, and might have you sagely nodding your head in agreement with its lovable characters’s observations. Highly recommended for fans of Jenn Bennett & Julie Buxbaum, Solomon’s book wooed me ardently and I can’t wait to read more.


CW: antiSemetism

Today Tonight Tomorrow is out on 07/28. Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary ARC. All opinions provided are my own.

I enjoyed this book - there's something for everyone in this plot, and the characters felt real, engaging, and honest in their motivations. I don't know that I"d recommend to my younger students, but high schoolers would love this one.

I think this book changed me as a person and reader. To say it was excellent would not give this book the justice it deserves. From the enemies to lovers trope done in the best way, to perfectly describing Jewish microaggressions, this book was profound for the YA space in the best way.

A fun read which really nicely captures the feeling of leaving the comfort, community, and routine built up during high school (I'm coming up on ten years post graduation, and it still felt intimately familiar to me). A lot of YA books tend to have something of a "can't wait to get out of here" attitude, which is perfectly fair, but stepping out into a new world can be scary and anxiety-provoking, particularly for those who excelled in the high school setting, and I loved how it was expressed here, especially alongside the senior class competition and mini tour of the MC's hometown of Seattle.

I also really liked Rowan's passion for romance novels and the complex feeling that comes with it - can't believe she didn't see the rivals to romance coming, though, considering her expertise! It might have been a speedrun version of it, but all the hallmarks were there. 😉

Ironically, although I sought this book out for its Jewish content, I found the execution to be a little lacking. I've always appreciated the casual ease with which this author was included Judaism as a part of her work, and this felt a lot more awkwardly done. The "when did you find out about the Holocaust" convo RIGHT after finding out they're both Jewish?? Maybe it's because I grew up Jewish with almost exclusively Jewish friends while Rowan specifically mentions that she feels like she lacks a community of Jewish peers, but I found the conversations like that or asking Neil what his family does for Shabbat as a conversation opener to read as sort of unrealistic, and the way their mutual Judaism was brought up a lot in the latter half to be unwieldy, slightly jammed in.

The romance didn't 100% grab me but it was definitely fun and bantery, and I appreciated that it didn't take up all the air in the book: there was room for both Neil and Rowan to have other issues and relationships with family and friends which were given good consideration.

Definitely a great option for those looking for a rom-com/YA contemporary. I'm not sure whether or not I'd recommend it to graduating seniors - reading about a more typical graduation environment might be too bittersweet at this point - but I think it could work, and is also an emotionally solid choice for anyone going through some sort of transition.

Loved this book! Cute and quirky and swoony in the best way. The characters are easy to love and root for their happily ever after.

I loved this so, so much. It's difficult to pull off a book set entirely in one day, but Rachel Lynn Solomon knocked it out of the park with this. The romance and the character growth felt perfectly developed within the limited time frame. Plus, the premise of this book was just so much fun-- a scavenger hunt around Seattle where two archnemeses have to pair up as they grapple with high school coming to an end AND their confusing feelings for one another? *chef's kiss* In many ways, this book is as much a love letter to romance as it is to the city of Seattle itself, which was lovely, too. I can't recommend this one highly enough!
