If you’re looking for a plot oriented book, this is probably one to skip. However, when it comes to characters What I Thought was True succeeds big time. That and it’s very atmospheric and relaxing. I literally felt like I was on the island when reading this book. It’s true it wasn’t ...
I started and stopped My LIfe Next Door a few weeks ago. I had to re-read the beginning again since I honestly didn't remember a lot about the book at that point but I think I initially just chalked this up to another young adult novel that I probably was not going to enjoy. I have to say that I rea...

This would have received 5 stars, but the end of the book seemed to just come a little abruptly. It was like, I was at the last 15 pages of the book, feeling like there is so much to be resolved and there is NO WAY they can be portrayed to me in a way where I am satisfied - and I did sort of get tha...
I remember My Life Next Door being cute and readable, I was expecting the same from What I Thought Was True. Unfortunately this novel proved to be dull and tedious, the cute and readable were missing entirely. What I Thought Was True features a main character in Gwen who is not memorable. She is con...
I finally have internet at home! So I should be around here more often. Yay! In the meantime, I went to Boston for my sister’s college graduation, and then to Oregon for my brother’s high school graduation. I’m so proud of them both. And of course, with two long plane rides, I had a lot of reading...
