Review by: Rose Lucivero on April 04, 2011 : (no rating)
I was very pleased with this book by Cassandra O'Sullivan Sachar.

The story brought me back to my early twenties, and how I would obsess over a crush, but not do anything about it. Also Ms. Sachar touched on some very prominant issues in this book which should not be taken lightly...and handled them very well.
