Auden has just finished her senior year and looks forward to spending the summer like she usually does: staying home and studying, while occasionally attending the parties hosted by her mom for her grad students. However, instead of…

I didn't hate it but I didn't love it. I was somewhat cliche and predictable, a lot like her other novel This Lullaby. I enjoyed it in the end.

I was a fan of Sara dessens books when I was in high school and I found im still a fan as an adult. I loved Eli's character as well as Audens. Their character development was well done and kept me wanting to know more about them. Lovely…

I love Sarah Dessen's books because they're romance books but they have this deepness to them that I sometimes can't find in teen love stories. This particular book is one of my favourites by her and one that I keep thinking about years…

The narrator seemed authentic; however, I'm personally not a huge YA reader and I preferred Keeping the Moon over this particular book.

While I was reading it, I thought the book was OKAY. As in, it was interesting enough and wasn't too bad but I didn't find the romance aspect that everyone compliments Dessen for (is that what they comment her for?) to be all that special.…

To me, this book is just another fantastic delivery from Sarah Dessen! She is absolutely amazing and I just love her books! Sarah Dessen is just one of the best young adult writers out there today! But the one thing that does indeed bother…

This was the first Sarah Dessen book I read and I pick it as my favorite amongst the others. I enjoy how the places they go arent very suspected and has a fair good plot. I really recommend it to everyone!

I love this book. Sarah Dessen gives me something to hold onto with all the life lessons that her characters learn. To me a good book can kind of play out in my head and I saw this book as if it was a movie and I wish it was one.

As someone who learned how to ride a bike in middle school, I can somewhat relate to Auden. But I can't imagine what it's like to not really have a childhood and to always have to act like an adult. I love how Sarah Dessen's characters…
