The Review 📚 Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares
✨ The Title/Cover Draw:
- I saw the series on Netflix last year and wanted to read the book series, especially since the Netflix series isn’t continuing.
💜 What I liked:
- For me this is a love story about New York and all the fun places around the city. The friends that both Dash and Lily have are fun characters and it was an enjoyable ride.
😱 What I didn’t like:
- Having seen the series already, I felt like the story was a little slow in parts. Also I didn’t realize that this book was over 10 years old. Not a deal breaker or anything, but there were parts that were definitely dated. Regardless – I will be continuing the series.
🚦 My face at the end: 😻
💭 3 Reasons to Read:
- 1. Holidays in NY
- 2. A Moleskine
- 3. The Strand
🕧 Mini-Summary:
- Dash and Lily find each other through a series of challenges in a bullet journal.
All thoughts and opinions are my own.

📘 Summary 📚 Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares
“I’ve left some clues for you.
If you want them, turn the page.
If you don’t, put the book back on the shelf, please.”
So begins the latest whirlwind romance from the bestselling authors of Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist. Lily has left a red notebook full of challenges on a favorite bookstore shelf, waiting for just the right guy to come along and accept its dares. But is Dash that right guy? Or are Dash and Lily only destined to trade dares, dreams, and desires in the notebook they pass back and forth at locations across New York? Could their in-person selves possibly connect as well as their notebook versions? Or will they be a comic mismatch of disastrous proportions?
Rachel Cohn and David Levithan have written a love story that will have readers perusing bookstore shelves, looking and longing for a love (and a red notebook) of their own.
