So I'm not really sure why I stopped after 2 chapters. Need to try again :) I'm so glad you found this book funny and sweet and liked the characters and their growth :) I hope you have such luck with the next one from Matson as well :)Siirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265532869057616598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-37368149412322116802015-03-11T02:43:23.057+00:002015-03-11T02:43:23.057+00:00Whoot!

I loved the friendships and the dynamics between the characters. And yes, I was glad that Sloane left because it really allowed Emily to grow as an individual and be herself. <br />I need Morgan Matson to write more books!! <br />Lovely review! :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-2291360769316431532015-03-09T10:25:27.016+00:002015-03-09T10:25:27.016+00:00I've been hearing only great things about this...I've been hearing only great things about this book but never got around to reading it. :) I love friendship stories and I hope to read SYBG this year. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-42184183193404224452015-03-09T10:09:03.247+00:002015-03-09T10:09:03.247+00:00This is one of those contemporary YAs that I know ...This is one of those contemporary YAs that I know is largely about friendship and finding yourself within you and among your friends (or newfound ones ;D). I'm so happy to know that this was an exceptional read for you, Jasprit! I have this on my Kindle and can't wait to get to it when I get the chance. I just love the idea of losing your friend, and by losing your friend, you find yourself and other friends :) I do hope that Sloane does come back, though (DON'T SPOIL ME HAHA)<br /><br />Faye at <a href="http://thesocialpotato.maryfaye.net" rel="nofollow">The Social Potato</a>Faye M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01482378962410177583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-20507427559604894172015-03-09T10:02:40.356+00:002015-03-09T10:02:40.356+00:00Yay!

I'm hoping I can get my review written this week but given I haven't been able to review Amy and Roger yet and I read that in January I'm not sure! Too many feels. Matson is definitely an auto-buy author now for sure and I don't have many of those anymore. Fab review, Jasprit! Totally agree with everything you said!
