“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.

October Wrap Up - November TBR

Hello again everyone, Today starts a new month and that means that it is time to wrap up the previous month and set this month's TBR. Last month I set an ambitious TBR which I was unable to complete entirely, but I did manage to get a lot read which makes me kind of happy. As I also said on the previous month's post I was going to center this past month's TBR on the "Sweep/ Wicca" series by Cate Tiernan, and that is what I did. I managed to finish the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, and get thought half of the eleventh. I have enjoyed most of this books, however the last two, Seeker and Origins, change the point of view and I have not been able to click with them as I was able to so with the other ones. As for the November TBR, I want to still finish this series, reading the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth and sixteenth books in the series, Eclipse, Reckoning, Full Circle and Night Child. Appart from that, I want to keep finishing s...
