How cool is that? My parents are in Los Osos, overlooking the bay. It's so beautiful there, you lucky dog. <br/><br/>So: Yes, the scene in Tony's car! Exactly!!! But other than that, and the fact that I found Hannah to be a completely unsympathetic character (but I'm glad she was, in a way) I thought it was an awesome book. You live in Morro Bay?!

Clay was a little annoying at first (and the scene in Tony's car!) but he grew on me. He definitely redeemed himself in the end!<br/><br/>Michele - I think it's a great YA book! Well, for the older crowd.<br/><br/>Ms. Bookish - send it straight to the top of the pile! ;-)<br/><br/>Icedream - ha, my evil plan is working. ;-) I have a list a mile long, thanks to everyone else's blogs.<br/><br/>Jessi - thanks! It seemed appropriate.<br/><br/>Veens - :-(<br/><br/>Melanie - hooray, a fellow fan!<br/><br/>Joanne - and I didn't have to think as hard, either. Okay, not really true, but it felt easier than complete paragraphs.<br/><br/>Dawn - I agree with Ali. I'd also read it and discuss it with her. It's got some pretty heavy themes in it.

I've seen a lot of marketing promo, but yours is the first review I've read.<br/><br/>I think it's probably too old for my 12-year-old, but she must read all kinds of "mature" themes without me knowing it! Great review format, softdrink!

I'm glad that I could so empathize with him because I found Hannah such an unlikable character. This is an awesome format for a review – you hit on so many good points this way.

I also enjoy reading books set near where I live - it makes me feel more connected to the book when I can recognize the setting. I'll definitely keep an eye out for this book. :) I love the way you did your review.
