The Moon and More

        For my first book review I am doing The Moon and More by Sarah Dessen! This book was amazing, definitely one of Mrs. Dessen's best books so far (in my opinion). Also it was a quick and rather simple read. Perfect for summer!

       Sarah Dessen's books are all intertwined in some way. For example, all of her books (If I remember correctly) are set in her small fictional town of Colby. Another way she relates her books to one another  is she adds characters or places that we have encountered before. It is a lot of fun reading one of the familiar names or places that you remember from previous books in other books. The Moon and More is no exception to the trend and has quite a few of these "hidden treasures" located throughout it.


 
     
       The books main character is a soon to be college student named Emaline. She has lived in Colby her whole life, dated the same boy since ninth grade, and feels like she is just stuck where she is. That's when a new boy, Theo,  shows up in Colby while working for a film producer. He turns her world around along with the help of her off and on biological father, and makes her question what she really wants for her future.

       If you are looking for a fun book to read this summer I would strongly recommend this one or any other by Sarah Dessen.
