The Boy Beside Me

Summary: The Boy Beside Me
Review: Although I'm a woman in her mid-fifties and this book is really written to appeal to the late teen genre, I was really impressed at how the author could mesmerize the reader with such descriptive literature, and stay on the subject genre. The development of the characters and the way they change is quite remarkable. I loved the story, the relationships, the town all took place in, and the incredible twist in ending the book. This is an up and coming author, for sure.

Review: I loved this book! It was so true to life. I couldn't put it down. I loved every part of it and I really cared about what happened to the characters. I can't imagine a book about people suffering through teenage problems being any better.
