Reader reviewed by katie

The Truth About Forever is a good book, if somewhat predictable. It is written by Sarah Dessen, whose stories always seem to follow a similar path, but yet, they are each unique and memorable in their own special way. Maybe their individuality comes from the fact that her characters are always so well developed. I have my favorite characters, as well as the characters that get under my skin. My favorite characters are the characters I can relate to, such as Delia, a frazzle-brained chef who never seems to have enough time for anything, and Kristy, a fashion-forward kind of girl. The characters that get under my skin are the characters whose opinions I disagree with such as the heroine's mother, who completely cuts her daughter off from the world, and the heroine's ex-boyfriend, who believes everything must be perfect at all times. All these factors together make The Truth About Forever an excellent read.
