Routine makes Eliot Taylor happy. He thinks. He goes to work, goes to school, and lives with his two best friends. Except lately, something’s missing. While he’s hungover from New Year’s Eve, Eliot’s friend Jen coerces him into a New Year’s resolution. They agree to try one new activity per month for an entire year.

This was a light, mostly enjoyable read that was low on angst and high on cuteness. Matt and Eliot were both likeable, but not perfect. Their group of friends was funny and endearing.
