Ferris Bueller’s Day Off meets Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist in this romp through the city that never sleeps from the New York Times bestselling author of Since You’ve Been Gone.

Two girls. One night. Zero phones.

Kat and Stevie—best friends, theater kids, polar opposites—have snuck away from the suburbs to spend a night in New York City. They have it all planned out. They’ll see a play, eat at the city’s hottest restaurant, and have the best. Night. Ever. What could go wrong?

Well. Kind of a lot?

They’re barely off the train before they’re dealing with destroyed phones, family drama, and unexpected Pomeranians. Over the next few hours, they’ll have to grapple with old flames, terrible theater, and unhelpful cab drivers. But there are also cute boys to kiss, parties to crash, dry cleaning to deliver (don’t ask), and the world’s best museum to explore.

Over the course of a wild night in the city that never sleeps, both Kat and Stevie will get a wake-up call about their friendship, their choices…and finally discover what they really want for their future.

That is, assuming they can make it to Grand Central before the clock strikes midnight.

 


Review:


Take Me Home Tonight by Morgan Matson is the cute and quirky book that you needed for 2021. I always make time for Morgan Matson. Her books always bring a smile to my face. Matson writes such good characters and character relationships. 


This story is about Kat and Stevie’s friendship. These two friends started off rough in the beginning and it only gets worse. Stevie and Kat have to learn how to navigate their night and their friendship. I can’t even imagine being stranded in New York City and then having a rough time with my best friend. (Brie, if we ever make it NYC, let’s stick together forever no matter what.) There were points in the story that I struggled a bit. Kat’s character was a bit difficult and annoying at times. I loved Stevie’s character. Then we also have Teri that makes an appearance as well. Teri story arc is a bit ridiculous but still enjoyable.


If you are a Matson book reader, then you will recognize a few of the characters in this book. I really enjoyed the cameos. I am really glad that Matson put them in the story. Take Me Home Tonight is a really good book and brought me some joy when I needed it. I love how entertaining and relatable this story is. I may never have been lost in New York City but I have had plenty of times where I have ups and downs in friendships.


Let’s talk about the writing before I wrap this up as I am writing this review in the car on the road to San Diego for a funeral. When you see this review, I will have already arrived in SD, CA but at the moment, I am on my iPad typing in the car as I am 2.5 hours away from San Diego. This has been a bit of an emergency trip since my grandfather passed away on Friday and we are having a memorial service for him on Thursday. In some ways, I am on my own adventure just instead of with a friend, it is with my family. Instead of New York it is in California. No I don’t live in California and I have been in the car since 6am PST.


The writing is so welcoming. I love how Matson is able to draw her readers in right away and you feel apart of the story immediately. One is able to fall in love with the characters so easily. I love having the different point of views even thought sometimes I was annoyed with Kat. This novel is quite enjoyable so if you need something fun and light hearted, pick up Take Me Home Tonight by Morgan Matson.
