Why Am I Excited For This Book?
Peyton, Sydney's charismatic older brother, has always been the star of the family, receiving the lion's share of their parents' attention and—lately—concern. When Peyton's increasingly reckless behavior culminates in an accident, a drunk driving conviction, and a jail sentence, Sydney is cast adrift, searching for her place in the family and the world. When everyone else is so worried about Peyton, is she the only one concerned about the victim of the accident?
Enter the Chathams, a warm, chaotic family who run a pizza parlor, play bluegrass on weekends, and pitch in to care for their mother, who has multiple sclerosis. Here Sydney experiences unquestioning acceptance. And here she meets Mac, gentle, watchful, and protective, who makes Sydney feel seen, really seen, for the first time.The uber-popular Sarah Dessen explores her signature themes of family, self-discovery, and change in her twelfth novel, sure to delight her legions of fans.
Why Am I Excited For This Book?
Because it is SARAH DESSEN! So I have only read 2 Sarah Dessen books so far (though I own a bunch of them, I should read them soon). But I enjoyed reading both of them and I really LOVED The Truth About Forever! So I am looking forward to this book because I enjoy Sarah's writing. So I am really excited for a new Sarah Dessen book!
What book are you waiting on this Wednesday?
I've heard of Sarah Dessen, but I've never read anything of hers before. Sounds interesting! ^.^
