It came right when I needed to be hooked into a book and I truly related to what both girls were feeling. It's so interesting & also great commentary on the "internet" age.Estellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04173717120884471137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-57550449827639243662014-02-06T21:41:53.177-08:002014-02-06T21:41:53.177-08:00Your review was one of the reasons I wanted to rea...Your review was one of the reasons I wanted to read this :)The Insouciant Sophisticatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03934853089105345052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-91859759331988263252014-02-06T21:41:41.917-08:002014-02-06T21:41:41.917-08:00That's what I liked about Lauren!That's what I liked about Lauren!The Insouciant Sophisticatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03934853089105345052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-68471567651903713602014-02-06T21:41:06.581-08:002014-02-06T21:41:06.581-08:00I saw a lot of positive reviews beforehand so I wa...I saw a lot of positive reviews beforehand so I was pretty optimistic going in and I'm glad that paid off.The Insouciant Sophisticatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03934853089105345052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-61312156789337097682014-02-06T21:40:47.789-08:002014-02-06T21:40:47.789-08:00Elizabeth had so much crappy stuff but I identifie...Elizabeth had so much crappy stuff but I identified more with Lauren, personality-wise.The Insouciant Sophisticatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03934853089105345052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-60850305641146445222014-02-06T21:40:25.839-08:002014-02-06T21:40:25.839-08:00Maybe your library will get it?

I felt Elizabeth had the worse problems to overcome, but I liked Lauren's sense of balance and way of dealing with things better. At any rate, I wanted to read about this transition period and I thought the authors did a good job portraying it.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07567954521782974033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-87922306350385418692014-02-05T08:58:06.357-08:002014-02-05T08:58:06.357-08:00I would really like to get a copy of this, all the...I would really like to get a copy of this, all the reviews make it sounds so good. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17441774134845678055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-19314880878316776502014-02-04T14:53:14.495-08:002014-02-04T14:53:14.495-08:00I kept going back and forth about which character ...I kept going back and forth about which character I liked best, so I think I'm like you and I liked them equally.
