Summary: What my mother doesnt know
Review: I highly Recommend this book to young adult girls. Not only is this a book on high school love and heartaches. Its about a high school girl that discovers what the difference is between love and lust. This was a very spectacular book. If you get the chance read it High school girls.

Review: i read this book in one day, when i was locked in due to too much snow. i sat down, read the first sentence, and was hooked. the way this book is written it makes you enjoy the book, but at the same time, you have to figure out some things for yourself. i really like how the book is written in poetry form, as it seems almost more innocent than if it were written in paragraph form.

Summary: the best book in the world
Review: This book was so good! It was so hard to put down! I read it in one hour! Sonya Sones writes a series of poems about a girl in high school that's dealing with problems that every teenage girl goes through: guys, friends, popularity, and many more. It deals with her first, second, and third love. It also had some funny parts that made me laugh out loud while I was getting a haircut! The main character, Sophie delves into the thoughts of every girl. Sonya Sones writes out the thoughts that most of us don't dare to say. I highly reccomend it!

Summary: Terrific Book!
Review: "What My Mother Doesn't Know" is a terrific book, a must read for anyone who is or ever was a teenager. Sohpie, the fourteen-year-old protagonist, leads us on a touching, comic and ultimately triumphant adolescent journey, along which boyfriends are won and lost, friendships are made and betrayed, and parents with barely a clue are bravely endured. Ms. Sones writes with an honesty, immediacy and poignancy that grabs you by the heart and carries you happily and breathlessly all the way to the story's surprsising and altogether satisfying conclusion. I loved it! A Reader from Ohio

Summary: Interesting...
Review: This book was interesting, that's for sure. The format (all written in poems) was really cool and makes it a quick read. While the plot is not very deep and there is no characterizaton, the book was good. I enjoyed it a lot, although the ending was bad...it leaves the reader hanging. I would recommend this book to teenage girls who want a quick and cute read.

Summary: WOW! Who would have known it was a book of "poems"?!?
Review: This book made me so mad!... This was a VERY quick read, with no tangible plot or deep charactarization. It was a book based on "poems" about her life. The poems themselves described what was going on, which is the main reason this book was so bad. The poems are boring and dry and offer little insight to the situations going on. I reccomend you do not read this book, unless you are keen on wasting your time.

Summary: This book is so great
Review: having two older sisters, there is no lack of teen literature at my house. While looking for something to read one day, i spotted this. I knew it was my book when i saw that it's main character was named sophie, just like me. I kept on reading it, and more similarities between the two of us kept popping up. I could almost hear her saying the lines of the poems that make up the book, which is another similarity, as i am a poet myself. The stories of her love are gripping, funny, and often chilling because you know how it feels to be where she is. This is a great, quick, interesting read for any bored teenaged girl.

Summary: One word...WOW
Review: "What My Mother Doesn't Know" was an absolutely amazing read. Readers may be skeptical because the book is written in poetry, but I assure you, it is worth the time and money spent to read it. Sones's poetry allowed the reader to get right into the nitty gritty of the plot with simple, emotional and thorough lines, connecting the reader to each of the characters in a way unlike that of any other teen novel . I applaud Sonya Sones on creating this deligtful masterpiece, I couldn't put it down.

Summary: Sones really delves into the teenage mind!
Review: This is the first book I've had the pleasure of reading by Sonya Sones, and I must say, I was highly impressed. The entire novel is written in verse...and that just makes it all the more enjoyable. The book's main character, Sophie, is a wonderful teenage poet who expresses her thoughts and ideas through verse. She covers everything from boyfriends, to internet crushes, to her dysfunctional family. When I sat down and started reading this book, I literally couldn't put it down until I was finished with it! Time flies by so quickly when you're enjoying yourself, I guess. Sonya Sones is a very inspirational author, and as I teen, I can say I related to A LOT of the things that Sophie wrote about. Very inspirational, humorous book.
