No, no, NO. This was supposed to be a Triple Win for me.There are two Sloane Jacobs. One of them is an ice-skater... The other one plays hockey...They are unhappy with their lives and when they meet, decide to do a Parent Trap/The Pauper and The Prince thing.Starts OK, but when they meet, they have ...
I don't think any book that is so steeped in sports can get any more charming than Being Sloane Jacobs! After I closed that book, I was just sitting there with a silly grin on my face. No kidding. I wanted to hug the book to sleep. It was that adorable. And yet I totally got into the sports parts. T...
This book was just cute. It is The Parent Trap cute. Lindsay Lohan-before-she-became-a-coke-addict cute. There is not much substance to the story or its characters, it is generic, it is inoffensive, but damned if I didn't have a huge grin on my face as I was reading it. It is a feel-good book. If y...
This review and others are posted at Inspiring Insomnia.One of the most important aspects of a dual narrative novel should be creating and maintaining unique voices for the narrators. Being Sloane Jacobs failed by this count, and it made it even harder to enjoy this lightweight story. It may as wel...
By now, you’ve probably heard my rant about packaged books. But occasionally, on very rare occasions, I do indulge in them. This was one of those books. It involved figure skating, you guys. That in itself almost guaranteed that I would read it. However, the whole sport of figure skating was ...
How I looked forward to Being Sloane Jacobs. How I looked forward to reading a book by this author! But this book was simply not what I thought it was going to be, and perhaps Meant to be is her better book and I am STILL looking forward to reading that. Before I get to the complaining and ranting, ...
OVERALL IMPRESSION: This book was just okay for me. I didn't believe it as much as I wish I did. Both girls took to the other sport really quickly. I feel like it would take a lot more work from both of them to be able to achieve the skills they were performing. The two characters having the same na...
Book of the Week 2 I adored Meant To Be. It was super cute and fluffy. A sweet love story, great characters and great writing style. So when Morrill finally released another novel- I was so excited. I got a whole bunch of my reading friends to read it. Because you can't go wrong with reading Morri...
Easily the best YA romance I've read in a while. I loved the humor the most. I thought the point of view changing would bug me but it was pretty easy to get used to.
Actual Rating: 3.5 starsBeing Sloane Jacobs was a cute, albeit predictable, story that was very reminiscent of The Parent Trap: two girls with the same name and similar appearances switch places for the summer, learning a lot about themselves along the way. In this case, however, there was the added...
