Just read if you want to read all the Dessen books. Otherwise, skip it. The book abruptly ends and there's no real closure to Colie's slightly frayed relationship with her mother. One good thing I will say is that I enjoyed Isabel and Morgan's relationship/friendship. Colie is sent to stay with he...

My fourth Sarah Dessen book for my summer challenge, and I can say this: I love it! I have bought it for my collection (hopefully that one will have grown quite a bit when summer is over).I loved the main character, at times I wish should have more confidence (we often hear she is pretty), but lucki...

Ahh, Sarah Dessen. She does what she does so well. I love the setting, familiar and believe from here other books. I love her characters, the girls that she writes so well that you might want to be each and every one of them, even though they all have very real flaws and woes. I especially love the ...

The last couple Dessen books I’ve read have been an absolutely disaster. So I kept staring at this one and fearing that it would be like Someone Like You and That Summer all over again–downright terrible and…just not good, actually. However, Keeping the Moon was a pleasant surprise, and I felt right...

I rather wish I had come across Sarah Dessen when she published her first book, That Summer--I really think that her books are great reads for teen and 'tween girls. However, that doesn't stop me from enjoying them years after the fact.Keeping The Moon deals with an issue that I think most girls str...

Sarah Dessen is one of those authors I've heard a lot of rave things about; she's considered one of the very best Contemporary YA writers. And though I was not over-the-moon for Last Chance, I was certainly hooked on its author.Last Chance is a novel about overcoming one of the toughest things in li...
