I?ve loved her books since I was in middle school. They?ve gotten me through some pretty tough times. They are bittersweet stories about teens going through hardships but ultimately overcoming it with light and hope. This wasn?t my favorite out of her stories I?ve read but it w...

Lurlene McDaniel kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time while reading... she also made it hard for me to put down the book. I wasn?t expecting everything that did end up happening and can?t wait for her to write the next book; no matter how many more tears I?ll cry over he...
