This was a very sweet book. My only problem was the HEA. I felt that it made me wonder about certain things. I think the book needed an epilogue. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a light quick read.

In todays technologically advanced world, love finds us no matter where we are. Those of us who are highly skilled in all things Twitter will relate to Abby and Mark and for those of us who arent so knowledgeable in all things Twitter will still relate to Abby and Mark. I found myself drawn to this book by the title and though Im not an advanced Tweeter as other people are, this story is still easy to get into.
I loved how each Twitter conversation between Mark and Abby starts with the question what are you wearing, which elicits some humorous responses and ends with a goodnight round robin volleying back and forth until Mark ends it with Goodnight Tweetheart.
I could not put this book down. Like Abby, I eagerly anticipated what Mark Baynard would say next and find out where in the world he was traveling to next. I loved how his wit and charm draw Abby out of her slump and she begins writing again with his daily encouragement.
Overall, I loved this book but I struggled with the rating. I felt the ending left me a little flat. There should have been more, giving the reader a little closure. Still, this book is a solid A- that will charm the reader, bring a smile to their face and a laugh to their soul.

A great read. Love the story line and I could not put it down. Abby and Mark's story will leave you wanting more and sighing in the end. I laughed so hard during some of their tweeting and cried during other but enjoyed it all. Sweet heartfelt romance by Teresa Medeiros different from her other stories but just as good.

Don't let the cover fool you, this book is more than just "fluff". Highly recommended.

This book was not at all what I expected and I was particularly disappointed by the twist the book took towards the end. At least it was a quick read so it did not waste too much of my time.

Didn't think I would like this book. It is a bit sappy, you have to believe in love at first tweet, and of course, 2nd chances. In the end I was routing for the couple and hoping that they would end up happily ever after. It is a quick read for those who love a good love story. I would have liked the ending to be a bit more solid, but that is what your imagination for!
This book is different from any other books I've read by this author.
Abby Donovan is an author who wrote an 'almost Pulitzer' four years ago and now, trying to write her second book, has writer's block, so her agent set her up with a Twitter account thinking to get her a few fans.
The book, for the most part, is written in tweets and DMs between Abby and Mark Baynard. There were references to movies and TV shows in the book that I wasn't familiar with, but it didn't detract from the story.
All in all, it was an enjoyable book.

This didn't work for me. I don't have a Twitter account, nor do I plan on getting one. I don't understand the popularity of Twitter. I really don't "get it." Having said that, that's one of the reasons this book didn't work (for me). About 70% is tweets back and forth between Abby and Mark. A shit load of pop culture references abound. (How many books reference Veronica Mars to Lost to The Adams Family!!) That is one of the things I did like; however, it will date this book. It would be interesting reading a review 50 years from now; how many of the references will stand "the test of time?"
[I hated the ending. There. I said it. It's so open ended. They meet FOR THE FIRST TIME in person on the last fucking page. Oh and who knows if Mark survives. ARGH!

Eh. It was a cute super fast read . Kind of like reading people's Tweets, a little boring. The cutesy jokes that went on and on and cultural references that seem out of date even though the book came out in 2011 made it a little too glib to be taken very seriously as a romance. But was able to read it in a couple hours, so there's that.
Very cute book and a very quick read. I enjoyed this book very much.
