I will keep it short, this book was good. There were some parts that weren't that good (mostly had to do with Julia and her attitude). I loved the rest of the book though, the secret relationship, the after effects when someone you care about dies and then how to continue with life. How to live, how...
The Secret Year was a book that had been on my wish list for quite some time so when a friend gave me her book to borrow I was quite ecstatic. But what happened is what’s happening to me with a lot of books lately, I have really high expectations set, once I read the blurb I get really excited think...
I LOVE THIS BOOK! It captured the very essence of that time when you are a teenager. Coming into your own. But it blended very well with a very much "grown up" topic and unthinkable tragedy. The fact that it's told through first person, and it's a young man Colt, who is telling his story, the fact t...
Colt was with julia for a year, but nobody else knew about it. Julia lived on Black Mountain Road in a mansion with servents and had a country club boyfriend to compleat the package. Colt definitely didn't come from Black Mountain, and no one would have understood why they were togeather. But it nev...
Alrighty... This book reminded me a bit of [b:Looking for Alaska|99561|Looking for Alaska|John Green|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41DW9GX92PL._SL75_.jpg|919292] by John Green, but I think it fell quite a bit short of the standard that Alaska set. I couldn't really connect with or care about...
Good quick read. It was one of thosr books that took no time to get through, but at the end you wish it was longer so it didn't feel so rushed at parts. Honestly my heart broke for Colt and the fact that he was grieving alone, but it also yerned to get to know him a little better. I felt like we k...
Colt is dealing with the struggle to mourn Julia after being secretly with her for a year. No one knows this and its killing him to act unaffected. Until Julia's brother, Michael, hands him Julia's diary. Which is written to him.Colt thinks he will find answers in her diary and that by the time he f...
I bought this because it was on my recommendations on Amazon UK. It sounds really interesting and I really loved the cover so I was sold. Even though I did find it good I was slightly disapointed.The Secret Year is told from the main character, Colt's point of view. And it show him trying to deal wi...
Not sure how I feel about this one. Didn't feel connected to Colt at all, but that fits his character to a T. His inability to express his feelings kept me from liking him. Full review and rating to follow
The Secret year is one book that I enjoyed being on in the secret. Colt for a whole year dated Julia while she was with another guy. Suddenly with her death, Colt not sure how he should react.I felt so sad for Colt. He was hurting and yet he could not even show it. He was in pain and was upset over...
