“The truth about forever” is one of the most popular books written by Sarah Dessen, an author particularly popular for her YA contemporary romance novels, especially summery ones.

Ever since her father’s death Macy has been trying really hard to be perfect. Her boyfriend, Jason, is mister perfect, council president, volunteer, excellent grades and a job at the local library. However, her perfect boyfriend is about to spent his summer on Brain camp, while her has to take care of his job at the library with the feminine versions of her boyfriend, who hate her. However, a mail from her boyfriend makes her take a crazy decision, she starts working at the catering service which worked on the latest of her mother’s receptions. She does not expect to find the closure she needed in such an imperfect and chaotic environment.

“The truth about forever” was a fantastic summery read. It is one of those books that are really sweet but have a deep undertone, in this case both main characters have lost someone and somehow have to find closure to their losses. However, is not only them but also the people around them, who you can see how everyone is different in these kinds of situations in the way and the time it takes. I really liked the romance in this book for different reasons; for once it is not instant in fact it takes a long time to build, first they became friends and then they start being closer and closer. In addition to that you can see the relationship evolving so naturally the main character is even unaware of it. However, I would have liked to read more about them as a couple.
About the characters I really liked that I think every character represented something and each one was really different from each other.


To conclude, the truth about forever was a really good and a book I totally recommend you read in summer.
