The weekend is almost here, and what better way to spend a weekend than curling up with a good book? Winning a good book, of course! To kick off Friday reads tomorrow, I’m giving away an autographed copy of Emily Hainsworth’s THROUGH TO YOU, an intriguing YA novel about the choices we make and the ones we leave behind.

Another Zarr treasure, unafraid and unashamed to make readers uncomfortable by inviting us -- simply -- to look at real life through the lens of fiction. Life and relationships *are* often uncomfortable, messy, and full of misunderstandings. Main cha...more |

“Weeping is not the same thing as crying, It takes your whole body to weep, and when it`s over, you feel like you don`t have any bones left to hold you up.”
― Sarah Ockler, Twenty Boy Summer
― Sarah Ockler, Twenty Boy Summer
“I was, but then I realized that I was holding on to something that didn't exist anymore. That the person I missed didn't exist anymore. People change. The things we like and dislike change. And we can wish they couldn't all day long but that never works.”
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah
― Sarah Ockler, Fixing Delilah
“Nothing ever really goes away--it just changes into something else. Something beautiful.”

Just wanted to say thanks for accepting my friend request! I really love your writing, and I love how much you interact with your readers. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for accepting my friend request:)I loved your books, Bittersweet, Twenty Boy Summer, and Fixing Delilah! Twenty Boy Summer... I cried a lot through out it. It just felt so real! That's the Only book I've cried while reading! And Fixing Delilah? It was great! I loved how the whole time you wanted to keep reading the book to find out why they left in the beginning ! Then Bittersweet, was a fun book to read. I liked how the story had and ex-best friend, I loved the reason why she gave up on skating, I loved how she got back into it, and how she started helping the hockey team... I thought it was cool how in the beginning the guys didn't want her there, but in the end they ended up all being friends. And most of all I loved Who she ended up with in the end:)
All these books, I read twice because they were so AMAZING:)
Hi Sarah,I just wanted to say I LOVED Bittersweet. It was so so insightful. It's so rare that I give out 5 stars, but Bittersweet earned it from me :).
Two months ago, I joined the track team because my PE teacher said that I had a lot of potential, so I got really excited. I didn't really like where I was at at the time, because the people I hung out with were not really close to me. I thought that I could make fresh new friends in track and my new English class. Once I joined, I felt terribly homesick and I knew that it wasn't for me, so I returned back to my old schedule. Although my situation isn't as severe as Hudson's, I still feel closely connected to her, and I understand why she did what she did. Thanks for writing such a wonderful book. I will check out your other books soon :). I would love it if you could read my review of Bittersweet:
