Rating:  Summary: Two of Dessen's best in one big book Review: Both of these stories about teenaged girls, Halley & Scarlett in "Someone like you" and Colie in "Keeping the moon" held me captive. Sarah Dessen's writing is refreshingly honest, and she is a highly respected writer for the genre. I've never seen a bad review of her writing. I identified so well with all of these characters on some level. I was never pregnant, but one of my best friends was. These books suck you right in.I highly recommend you buying this! I am glad I did.

Rating:  Summary: Someone Like You/ Keeping the Moon Review: Growing up and acknowledging that you are different from all the other girls your age is never easy, especially for Collie Sparks. Collie has spent most of her fifteen years moving from town to town, with her unbalanced and extremely hyper mother. Establishing friendships never came naturally for Collie. She was thought of as an outcast, due to her jet-black hair, lip piercing, and being overweight. Collie learned how to find comfort, from the cruelty of her peers, in food. When Collie's mom becomes obsessed with aerobics and begins producing infomercials, Collie has no choice but to lose weight too. Sadly enough, even after Collie loses 45 pounds, she is still unhappy with her image and lacks self-esteem. Collie's mom is offered a job touring Europe on an "anti-fat crusade." Consequently, Collie is sent to her aunt Mira's rural North Carolina town for the summer. She begins waiting tables at a local restaurant, and becomes great friends with Isabel and Morgan, two of her coworkers. Isabel and Morgan spend the summer teaching Collie that she is a beautiful person, both inside and out, and that she should not let anyone tell her differently.

Rating:  Summary: Someone Like You/ Keeping the moon Review: This two books were the best books I have ever read! The author Sarah Dessen, is a great writer. She truly brings life to any character that she writes about. This two stories are about incrediable heroines that will make you want to read more of her work. They are about to girls facing there problems and are willing to overcome them. Each different they make both stories excellent!!! "Someone like You" is about a girl named Halley who has always been close to her mother but when dropped off at camp things change when her best friend Scarlett calls saying her boyfriend died and later in the story she friends out that Scarlett is pregnet. While Halley is soon falling for someone herself and that realationship with a boy name Macon. It truely taught me about myself. "Keeping the moon" is about a girl named Nicole, called Colie, her mother and her used to be extremly over-weight intil her Mom becomes a famous fitness instructer, appearing on T.V. and more she is send to live with her Aunt, crazy as she is for the summer, while her Mom promotes things in Europe. It was a great book also. These are fantastic books!!!!! I reccomend it to any 13 and up girl! One who is mature!
