For fifteen-year-old Haven, life is changing too quickly. She's nearly six feet tall, her father is getting remarried, and her sister, the always perfect Ashley, is planning a wedding of her own. Haven wishes things could just go back to the way they were. Then an old boyfriend of Ashley's reenters the picture, and through him, Haven sees the past for what it really was, and comes to grips with the future.
My Rating: **
There is not much I can say about this novel. I liked Haven, I found her very mature for her young age. However, I found her annoying at times when it came to dwelling over the past. I was disappointed with all the other characters as well as the relationship between Haven and her older sister’s, Ashley, ex boyfriend.
What I was missing in this novel is a life lesson that Dessen later on incorporated into her style of writing.
Sarah Dessen’s sense of humor came through In the story, which I always appreciate.
