Rylee I love all of Sarah's books! The one scene that I like to read over and over is the car wash scene. :) <3

Laura I never finished reading this book. I read more than half though. At first, I enjoyed it, but then it started getting weird. I didn't like the fact that the girl started falling for a bad boy type. I just didn't like them together as a couple. So, I never finished the book.

Kathy This is by far my favorite Sarah Dessen book! I loved the incorporation of music and how indepth they get with it, which is different from most of her other books! Also I love Owen and Annabel! This story has a lot of morals if you think about it. :)

Afshan Loved the book! I think all of Dessen's hard cover books are the best.


message 110: by Emily (new) - rated it 5 stars

Emily This was the first book I had ever read by Sarah Dessen and I just fell in love with it! I found I could really relate to Annabel even though her life was totally different from mine. I love this book so much, and it continues to be one of my favorite books of all time.


message 111: by Sydney (new) - rated it 5 stars

Sydney Emily~ I totally agree!! Annabel is much different from me... But I felt like I could relate to her, too! The way she dealt with things, and the things she goes through reminds me of me. Although I haven't been in the position she was, I felt like what happened to her could easily happen to me, or to anyone. I would have done the exact same thing she did about everything.


message 112: by [deleted user] (new)

I love it:) it's very realistic and just emotionally well-grounded.


message 113: by Emily (new) - rated it 5 stars

Emily Sydney-- oh yes! And I couldn't really find my self personality wise similar to Annabelle either! But the more I read the more I learned to appreciate the type of person she was. And over all I think I'd like to have a friend in my life just like her!


message 114: by Sydney (new) - rated it 5 stars

Sydney Emily~
Yes!!!! One of my friends reminds me of her a LOT, and I loved Annabel from the start, so it's cool to have a fictional character be "real" as one of my friends!


Sandra =) Yeah. I do think so, too, that Annabel is a real-to-life character. :))


Sandra =) Who knows the songs mentioned in this book? :)


message 117: by Brenda (new)

Brenda To be honest, I didn't really like this book. Maybe because my mind was focus on reading this book. I got it for the first time and I thought to myself, wow another Sarah Dessen book! I hope this one will be great too. I read till page 60, somewhere around there and I was pretty bored. I returned it. After a year, it was the only book on the shelf, so I got it and TRIED to understand so I guess this wasn't a book for me :(


message 118: by [deleted user] (new)

I absolutely loved this book!!! My favourite Sarah Dessen book by far!!!


message 119: by Alison (new) - rated it 5 stars

Alison this was one of the first books by Sarah Dessen that truly inspired me and grabbed my attention. I absolutely love music and the character Owen. Not just because of the way he looks but his personality in general. Sarah does a great job with portraying the reality of everyday teen life.


message 120: by Jane (new) - rated it 5 stars

Jane Wayland Desde luego yo he aprendido mucho con este libro, pero una de las frases que creo que devería destacar, y que a mí, sinceramente, me marcó mucho es la de:
He aprendido que los absolutos no existían, ni en las personas ni en nada.
No es la frase exactamente, pero decía lo mismo. Yo he prendido mucho con la novela,pero esto es lo que debería destacar (entre otras cosas). Creo que esta simple frase ya demuestra lo mucho que expresa esta novela que puede resultar muy simple, pero la visión que te muestra del mundo es genial. Leer eso no tiene precio. Sin duda alguna magnífico.
