Reader reviewed by Kristen

Anyone seen the movie "How to Deal"? It was partially based on this book, and another by Sarah Dessen called, "That Summer." Scarlett and Micheal went out all summer. Michael dies in a motorcycle accidnet. Soon after, Scarlett finds out she is pregnant after only having sex one time (I still don't understand how "it just slipped off. I dont know how it happened." But I guess that really isnt a big part of the storyline). Haley, her best friend, is there to help her through it, and helps to take care of her, especially during the fights with her mom where they are battling over adoptiong and abortion. Along the way, Haley falls in love with Macon, Micheal's best friend, and gets heartbroken. I was fairly disappointed in the ending. I was expecting a bit more, but I guess not everything can be the same as in the movies, right?
