When I was in NYC a few year ago I discovered that I was out of books to read while I traveled, so I went to a bookstore to remedy the situation. NYC is expensive, and while I’m not cheap, I was on a budget, so when I saw that I could get two Sarah Dessen novels in one book for a very nice price, I snapped up How To Deal. Anyway, I really liked them a lot. I guess, simply because I’d never come across them, I never picked up any of her other books, but recently someone recommended The Truth About Forever and I just read it straight through, loving every minute. You know a book is good when you have one of those tiny smiles on your face the entire time you’re reading it. This book was one of those where you just know something big is going to happen and you can hardly wait. And yet, I think you might call it a quiet sort of book. I just really enjoyed it and think you should add it to your list too. I also got Just Listen today too.

Oh, yeah…and did you know that on Amazon if you click on Sarah’s book, her blog shows up right there on Amazon! How did she get that??? I wonder if you have to be a big time writer or what? That is very cool.
