good read for Mother and daughter

My daughter and I decided to read this book at the same time so we could talk about it as we went. Initially I was not that in to it, but by chapter 4, I was equally as engrossed as she. The many dynamics that are looked at, boyfriend/girlfriend, best friends, mother/daughter, etc. were all well...

Dissapointing

The beginning of the book was awesome!!! It had me up until like 3:00 a.m. reading!!But then at the end, when Halley didn't take Macon back, it deeply dissapointed me. I didnt finish the end of the book because it seemed boring without them together.

Touching story

This is the first book I read from Sarah Dessen and it was FANASTIC. The moment I read the first page I was absorbed to the story ! What I liked about this book was how Halley stuck with Scarlett throughout her pregnency and Micheal`s death. It shows how loyal Halley is. All her life Halley has...

I found a new YA author that I love!

This is the first of Sarah Dessen's that I've read, and I'll definitely be reading more of her books in the future. I REALLY liked the style of the book, the way she wrote these characters, and the story here. I mean, this woman knows how to write teens in a way that many authors do not. Every...

Wasn't too impressed

I wasn't happy when I started reading this book becuase I figured out that this book is the same as the movie How to Deal with Mandy Moore in it. Character names and all. I thought that this book was a waste of money.

Someone Like You

After reading The Truth About Forever, I backtracked to Sarah Dessen's second published novel, Someone Like You. Thinking back on this, I probably should have at least waited a day before plowing into more Dessen books, because I couldn't help making comparisons and switching so quickly between...

Sappy and Simple-minded

I wanted to be moved by this story about a girl supporting her best friend through a difficult time, but the main character Halley was whiny and self-involved, surpassed in the annoying category only by her clueless harpy of a psychologist mom. Everything from the bad boy love interest to the...

impressed

A good friend of mine suggested that I buy this book for my thirteen year old daughter. I am so glad I did! She loves to read, but it's hard to find books that she really likes. Once she started reading this one, she didn't want to put it down. She was done with it in a week. Very nice message...
