Sometimes you find a teenage book that doesn't talked down to you or shows all the bad choices you can make. Sometimes you do find true and honest love as a teenager. Sometimes life is carefree and amazing and there is no need to make life harder. This is a story of how a girl can just decide to give in to love and not make things more complicated than life needs to be.

This book was a wonderful read. It is a YA (teen) romance novel.

Eliana's father is deployed and she has to move to Oregon with her mother to the small town that both her parents grew up in. She must trade the sun, beach, and clubs of southern California for the cold, wet weather and bowling alley of Oregon.

I wish more teenagers could be more like Eliana, strong, confident, and she truely knows who she is and will not change that to please anyone. She knows whats right and she she has morals.

I loved the relationship she has with her mother and grandfather. I also liked the relationship she has with her new friend. She never tried to come between her and her old friends (even if they make her life hell).

I do have some unanswered questions, but I hope the sequel will sort them out.

Solo Sarah Schofield Books Reviews

So I enjoyed reading the book but was always hoping for something more. Like it was always leading up to something, or it left you thinking something was going to happen, but it never did. When the book ended, I was disappointed as it just seem to drop off into no where. No dramatc conclusion for a second book, or a cliff hanger so to say.

I do commend the writer for showing a strong female role model for the young adults that would more than likely be reading this book. The character had a good relationship with her mother, she stood her ground with her friends and boyfriend. But I think that in turn made the book sort of dull. Have her tested a little bit.
A very fun read! The protagonist, Eliana Davis, epitomizes the melodramatic teenage years that we have all lived through. She worries about what the other students in her new school think of her, she spends hours searching for the perfect dress for prom, and she obsesses over the cute boy on the baseball team.

What sets this book apart from other coming of age stories (and a main reason that I was so enthralled), is the way Sarah Schofield translates Eliana into a relatable role model for young women. She balances responsibility with extracurricular activities, resists sinking to a bully's level, and engages her elderly "gramps."

In many ways she is a new age feminist - she doesn't let guys make decisions for her, but she isn't afraid to be beautiful and delicate when she dances. I particularly related to and enjoyed the open and trusting relationship she shared with her mother. Although Eliana is not ecstatic to be uprooted from her friends, it is refreshing to read about a military brat who is understanding of the life her parents chose.
When I received this book, I was hesitant to read it. But I thought okay I will read it. The story drew me into it. It is a story of changes in a young woman and her daughter and their adaptation of returning to the parents home in a small town, from California, to Oregon. It was about going to a new school, New friendships and dealing with teen age emotions. Anger , reactions, bullying, falling in "love" but staying in control of their standards from family up-bringing. Setting goals, refusing to react to others in a negative way. I did enjoy this book & recommend it to teens & their mothers.
I thought the story line and the writing had a lot of potential, but the book is very slow. For at least the first half, pretty much nothing happens. I think some of the events could have been better highlighted and more suspense could have been built up. I understand the whole "rise above it/be the bigger person" theme, but there should be some sort of confrontation. The dialogue is so unnatural, that it becomes difficult to read. I would have also liked some insight into some of the less important characters. Like, why is the grandmother so uptight? What's the background about her mom having lived there? All the side story lines are underdeveloped. I did enjoy the romance between Eliana and Lucas - how they are so responsible and innocent. Overall, unless you just start in the middle and skip the incredibly uneventful first half, this book is a waste of time.
I don't ever write reviews but I thought I would give it a go on this book. I loved the book but there were some things bothering me. When I first picked it up, I was a bit annoyed about the writing style. The author creates short sentences that weren't very in-depth or had a lot of feeling in them. It just kind of left me... well, annoyed. I was about to not finish the book but I thought I would just go on with it since it was free. Fortunately, the book got better as I read on. I really liked the characters, especially Lucas, because they seemed real and just genuine and sweet. Some situations were a little cliche but I guess you gotta throw a little of that in a young adult book, right? While reading the book, I found myself wondering what Myrtle Creek looked like and what the people that lived there were like. Overall, I thought it was a great book despite some things and I'm excited for the sequel. )
I read this book because all of the reviews were so positive (and it was free!). I had high hopes for it, but ended up being a little disappointed. The writing style was juvenile and choppy, which had a tendency to bug me. I found at least two spelling/grammatical errors that shouldn't have made it past an editor (your curiosity is "piqued", and you eat dessert, not desert). The story just really has no climax or big resolution. It just saunters on, all butterflies and rainbows, and it would have been nice to have a little action along the way. And really, she never once thinks about the fact that Lucas is the son of her dad's former best friend? I know there's a sequel, but something has to happen that really gets the book going. Overall, it was a cute, quick read, but I doubt I'd cough up any money for the sequel.
