Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist

by Rachel Cohn, David Levithan

Random House Children's Books | May 23, 2006 | Reinforced Library Binding

It all starts when Nick asks Norah to be his girlfriend for five minutes. He only needs five minutes to avoid his ex-girlfriend, who's just walked in to his band's show. With a new guy. And then, with one kiss, Nick and Norah are off on an adventure set against the backdrop of New York City-and smack in the middle of all the joy, anxiety, confusion, and excitement of a first date.

This he said/she said romance told by YA stars Rachel Cohn and David Levithan is a sexy, funny roller coaster of a story about one date over one very long night, with two teenagers, both recovering from broken hearts, who are just trying to figure out who they want to be-and where the next great band is playing.

Told in alternating chapters, teeming with music references, humor, angst, and endearing side characters, this is a love story you'll wish were your very own. Working together for the first time, Rachel Cohn and David Levithan have combined forces to create a book that is sure to grab readers of all ages and never let them go.

    Pretty Good!

    Emily D

    10 months ago

    This was a really quick read--just two hours or so--but a good one, too. I went into it pretty doubtful but it was fun, funny, and really cute!

    I probably won't watch the movie (judging from the trailer, they've changed a lot) but the book is worth a read. Pick it up from a library, or maybe if you see it on sale.

    The characters were all really well-developed, and funnily enough, I actually liked Tris quite a lot. And Norah--Norah was hilarious!--and Nick, too. Good read!

    Fantastic Book!

    Fantastical rendition of two teens beginning something new in a chaotic world. The characters are completely believable and intelligent. This adventure of two people, one night, and a drunken best friend opens the world of teenage angst in a complete realistic fashion. It was like reliving everything I've felt from age ten to age twenty in 183 pages.

    This book was recommended by a number of customers and friends and it was just delightful. The swearing was a bit gratuitous in my opinion, but understandable. A great he said she said story, about a night that I think everyone wishes they could experience.

    A Perfect Teenage Night Out

    Julie Murphy

    • Indigo Employee

    6 years ago

    Written by two exceptional teen fic authors, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist is the type of night I wish I had have experienced in high school. From their first meeting and subsequently, first kiss, to sunrise where they're dancing in the rain utterly exhausted but reluctant to end the night, it feels like you are right there with them throughout their Saturday night adventures. Each new wrench in the night's plans is viewed through both teens' eyes thus giving the reader both sides of the story. This is a book that will be enjoyed by tweens, teens and young adults, male or female. Even those out of high school can appreciate the story, as it brings back those awkward and uncertain feelings that goes along with your teen years, yet at the same time, reminding you of those unexpected nights where anything can and does happen.
