A single choice can change everything.
Lena Wise is always looking forward to tomorrow, especially at the start of her senior year. She’s ready to pack in as much friend time as possible, to finish college applications, and to maybe let her childhood best friend Sebastian know how she really feels about him. For Lena, the upcoming year is going to be epic—one of opportunities and chances.
Until one choice, one moment, destroys everything.
Now Lena isn’t looking forward to tomorrow. Not when friend time may never be the same. Not when college applications feel all but impossible. Not when Sebastian might never forgive her for what happened.
For what she let happen.
With the guilt growing each day, Lena knows that her only hope is to move on. But how can she move on when she and her friends’ entire existences have been redefined? How can she move on when tomorrow isn’t even guaranteed?

A heart breaking, haunting story.
I’m not sure how to begin to explain, what this book done to my feelings. There were so many thoughts, feelings going through me as I read IF THERE’S NO TOOMOROW from start to the end of the book. I had never been in Lena’s shoes and can’t even begin to imagine what she was going through. Lena’s emotions, thoughts were described in such detail, I pictured it all and went through all the emotions that she was feeling in that tough time. If I were me, I know that I would never be able to stop blaming myself, if I ever move past it. Her family, her friends and of course her best friend, Sebastian. It’s always important to have such great support system in such difficult time. You can’t help but love this book, despite how heart aching and hard it was to read at times. You will cry. IF THERE’S NO TOOMOROW starts at the scene after the accidient, the scene that will pull you into book right away, will have you turning pages. You will wonder what will happen, and how it lead up to that point. Once you start to turn the pages, you will turn them until you reach the last one. If I didn’t have work, I would read it faster than I have. It was a tough subject to read about, but an important one. I am sure that it’s a subject that few people can relate to. Either having been in same situation or have a friend who gone through same one.
Sebastian and Lena : I could see how much Lena cared about him, how much she loved him. She’s strong to be able to remain friends with him after he rejected her. I’m not sure if I be able to be so close to someone who I was in love with, but who didn’t love me back. I’m glad that she did, she needed him. Especially after her and Abby seemed to drift apart after the accident, well more like Abby distanced herself from Lena. I did not like how she did it, but understood why she did it. I’m happy that Sebastian was there, even when she pushed him away, he was there. He was always there. There were times, just the way he was always there and considering he sneaked at her window middle of night, if there was possibility that there was something else, that he cared about her more than he was telling her. I guess I wasn’t that surprised when the truth came out. It did come out at worst possible time, but then maybe not. They couldn’t grief their friends forever, they have move on at some point. Besides I am sure their friends would want them to be happy. I smiled when the two of them finally ended up together, even if it did take them a while to get there.
I have read multiple novels by JENNIFER L.ARMENTROUT through years. First being Lux Series . There hasn’t been a book of hers that I read that I didn’t love. However, I think that IF THERE’S NO TOOMOROW has to be my favorite. At least right now, that could always change later. Right now, I can’t seem to get this incredible story out of my head. I keep thinking about it. I have feeling that this is the story that will stay with me for years to come, a story that I will end up re-reading multiple time in future, at least that’s a feeling I get. A powerful, beautiful story about love, friendship and a choice that could change everything. I believe that IF THERE’S NO TOOMOROW is a book that everyone should read.
It will keep you on edge of your seat, and take your breath away. Be ready for an emotional ride that you won’t forget.
