Along for the Ride is a story about second chances. Family problems, boy meets girl and then a happily ever after. Typical, but no worries, because Sarah Dessen has got a way of story telling that will surely make you fall in love. All the characters were interesting and each of them has their own p...
I’m slowly working my way through Sarah Dessen’s books, and I’ve luckily enjoyed them all, including Along for the Ride, my fourth experience with her writing. I had some problems at the beginning that made it impossible for me to give this book a higher rating, but I think the characters grew past ...
Cute story. I liked the characters. The adults drove me nuts through most of the story but they seemed to turn around in the end. Very nice end of summer read.
Auden wurde von ihrer Mutter darauf getrimmt, akademische Leistungen in den Vordergrund zu stellen und so hat sie keine wirklichen Freunde und ihr ähnlich orientierter Freund hat sie beim Abschlussball sitzen gelassen, weil er eine wichtige Konferenz besuchen wollte, um dort Kontakte zu knüpfen.

Like all of my favorite YA books, Sarah Dessen's books make me want to be a teenager again. To have that transformative experience that comes when everything in your life is changing, and you can't help but change, too.

I'm finding that Dessen's books have a strong mother/daughter conflict theme. It seems appropriate, considering that it's such a universal experience for teenaged girls. I appreciate a) that Dessen doesn't recycle the same characters and crisis each time--in each book, the characters and issues are ...
After reading with a paranormal/sci-fi twist in the past 2 and a half days, reading something "realistic", something closer to real life felt extremely refreshing. I have been a fan of Sarah Dessen after reading 'The Truth About Forever' during my exchange student year in 2007/08, so I was super exc...
4 stars. Not good as The Truth About Forever, but can a contemporary ever compare? Along For the Ride was a perfect, perfect summer read (or even a spring one!) and I definitely enjoyed it.
What a sweet book! I was expecting something fluffier, but this book really made me think. I will definitely be reading more Sarah Dessen in the future.
