Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
there are two sides toevery breakup.
This is Jordan and Courtney, totally in love. Sure, they were an unlikely high school couple. But they clicked; it worked. They're even going to the same college, and driving cross-country together for orientation.
Then Jordan dumps Courtney -- for a girl he met on the Internet.
It's too late to change plans, so the road trip is on. Courtney's heartbroken, but figures she can tough it out for a few days. La la la -- this is Courtney pretending not to care.
But in a strange twist, Jordan cares. A lot.
Turns out, he's got a secret or two that he's not telling Courtney. And it has everything to do with why they broke up, why they can't get back together, and how, in spite of it all, this couple is destined for each other.

GREAT BOOK! It was reccomended to me and I read it in one night. It was a very enjoyable read with a great story told from two points of view. I wish there was a sequel because I loved it a lot. Great for 13-25 year olds.

Teens will enjoy this. It was an easy read. There were parts that had me laughing. I enjoyed reading Jordan's point of view more than I did Courtney's.

Jordan and Courtney were an unlikely high school couple, but it really didn't matter because they were in love. They even planned to drive together to college orientation since they're going to the same college. But then Jordan dumps Courtney for a MySpace girl. Courtney is devastated, but she won't give Jordan the satisfaction of seeing her mope, even though that's extremely difficult for her. And now they still have that road trip to go on since it's too late to change plans. What Courtney doesn't know, though, is that there's a reason Jordan wants to go on this road trip with Courtney and a couple secrets he hasn't told her which have to do with why they broke up in the very first place. Two-Way Street is the story of very first love and true love in the midst of hardship.
Two-Way Street was a much better novel than I thought it would be. It's told from both Jordan's and Courtney's perspectives so you understand both their sides of the story. I enjoyed the flashbacks to before the trip, because it was really obvious how perfect Jordan and Courtney were for each other, even when Jordan's secret became too much for him to bear. I was hoping through the entire story that Jordan and Courtney would work out their issues because it felt that they were totally meant to be together. This story and the characters had a lot more depth than I expected from what I thought was a simple romance story. The complications to Jordan and Courtney's relationship added some humour and well as meaning to the novel. Overall, Two-Way Street was very enjoyable to read and much more than just a romance novel.
I recommend this book to all teen girls, but other readers may also enjoy it. I truly did love Two-Way Street and may read a couple of Lauren Barnholdt's other novels.

it's something different and unique. i was pretty satisfied with it and would give it 4 and a half stars. i liked the way the author wrote from the point of view of both jordan and courtney and kept switching from past to present; i thought it would be confusing but the author made sure that didn't happen. the suspense is also good and i can tell because when the secret is revealed to the reader, i literally gasped and stared gapelessly at the page for like thirty seconds. the love story is sweet and cute. the only thing i didn't like about the book was the writing style itself. it sounded like a distressed cheerleader talking the whole time; maybe because it sounded so much like a teenager talking i didn't like it, because i prefer more sophisticated writing. overall, a quick read, i finished it in several hours.
