Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Cassie

Macy Queen lives in a big house, goes to a great school, and has a boyfriend with the potential of a next Alburt Einstein.  However, behind the fake smile is a girl who misses her father. Macy's father died of a heart attach a year ago, and while her mother and her pretend they are "fine, just fine."  Macy can't help but be torn between the grief and the self-guilt.  However, a boy named Wes meets Macy, she's never really been the type for Artists, so this should be different.

Sarah Dessen throws another great novel at the reader.  The Truth About Forever is a great story with an excellent message.  Dessen writes more novels alike this one, however this is in the top 3.  I would recommend this book for ages 13-18.  Not only has this story caught my attention about love and loss, I can't wait to see what else Dessen has in store for her new novels.
