(Language: English)
When I was in the first few chapters of the book, I assumed it would be like other books I'd read on a similar topic, but I was wrong.Yes, I admit it: just when I thought Sarah Dessen was going to get predictable and cliche on me, my thoughts were turned upside down. Just Listen is a very good novel, very well-written. The supporting characters are very good, I think, each with their own set of circumstances that manage to, as always, teach Anabelle (the main character) a lesson. I'm not a fan of reviews, as they tend to give away the plot and the ending, but I will say: -Sarah Dessen manages to teach a moral lesson without being preachy, as she flawlessly does in many of her books. -I feel like I've seen this main character before with her actions and the way she responds to situations. -We see characters from her previous books, which I adore. In conclusion, Just Listen was a wonderful read. It will affect you, if not with the main plot, than in many of the subplots. A wonderful book. Seems pretty predictable so far, but we'll see where it goes. |

(Language: English)
Just when Nicholas Sparks was getting old and predictable to me, I remember why I read his novels.Dear John went against the ideas he had been flowing with and it brought away from the laurels he had been resting on. The characters in Dear John were rich and the emotions were real. I cried, I laughed, I felt pain. One of Sparks' best. |
