I have been reading a lot of Sarah Dessen books the past couple of months. "Someone Like You" is Dessen's second book and maybe I should have been more careful to read these in order. I really did love this book. It is about two best friends (Halley and Scarlett) and them trying to get through their...
This book was okay. I liked how Dessen described teen pregnancy with al the struggles that come with it, no sugarcoating. Also that she sends a message to girls that you shouldnt be pressured in to anything you don't want.It was an easy and quick read, but overall the story wasn't memorable to me an...

I started to read this book with the idea that it would be as perfect as the pr...
I enjoy that Sarah Dessen's books are always an easy read, and provide a nice break from the books I generally read. I believe this is about the 6th of Dessen's books that I have read, and I have to admit they do all start to sound the same after awhile. Girl has a best friend, one of the two of the...
