The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen


This summer I read multiple books. One of which was The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen. It was by no means a hard read and I actually loved how quick of a read it was. The plot was very sad because one of the first things you find out about the main character is that she witnessed her father die. If I had lost a parent it would be extremely devastating, but if I had seen that parent die it would've made it 100x worse. The character, Macy, found stability in her brainiac boyfriend and SAT prep. Throughout the book you see her branching out and breaking out of her shell and it's so interesting. She has a tricky romance with a guy named Wes that you find yourself rooting on and reading more just to see what would happen between them. The plot is not that eventful or powerful but I like how it wasn't. It was not a difficult summer read, it was a fun enjoyable one. Sarah Dessen captivates the teenage girl as her audience and she fails to make it boring. It was a really great read! I would recommend it to anyone looking for an easier, enjoyable read.
