by Janet Gurtler
Actual rating: 2.5 starsQuick thoughts: Technically the title should have been 17 Things I Thought Were True, not 16. There were a few typographical/editing errors as well. While one or two errors do regularly slip past into publication, I get distracted when there are more than that. That aside, I ...
When I first purchased this novel, I didn't really know anything about it. It was cheap and I liked the feeling the cover gave me. I think it was because of me not knowing anything that I liked it this much. It's YA contemporary romance, but it's also so much more than that. This is the kind of book...
Let me be honest, I was at first not truly sure if I would like the book. I was (until now that is) never a big fan of twitter, and I still think that # should stay on Twitter or similar fora.I can now honestly say after reading this book that this book was wonderful and that the whole # thing fitte...
In this day and age, social media is, like, the mecca of communication. Want to know what your fav. celeb. is up to? Follow him on Twitter. Want to let your friends know what you’re up to right at that very moment (whether it’s momentous or not)? Tweet it out, or update your Facebook status. Bu...
This was well done. I really liked the way that social media was handled and how the main character had to work through a sticky situation created by an embarrassing post.

So while I already had some thoughts about this book before I read the final copy (which I’d started on NetGalley, but finished once my own finished copy arrived in the mail), my review will onl...
I received this ARC via Netgalley in return for an honest review.If you follow my blog, you probably follow me on Twitter. So you probably know that in the last year, I have become something of a fan of the social media, in some ways liking it more than Facebook. On Facebook, there is always this ...
I loved the journey the characters went through in this book. They all learn something, and how things aren’t always as they appear.There were times that Morgan drove me nuts. She doesn’t have many friends, except online, and thinks the Twitter follower number is all that matters. Morgan is forced t...
Other reviews at The Book Babe's Reads. She's brave enough to be who she is. She embraces her inner weird and flies her freak flag with all she's got. And for once, I'm smart enough to see what a wonderful thing it is. #16ThingsIThoughtWereTrue wasn't a perfect book. Not at all. But it was an inte...
