A Time for Dancing, October 24, 2002 A time for Dancing is a book that I would recommend to all my my friends. It's mostly about friendship and how two friends, Julie and Sam, keep their friendship intact. Through out the book, the author, Davida Wills Hurwin, makes you feel like you're there, listening to them speak. Watching them argue, and cry together. Julie and Sam have been best friends since they can remember. They've told eachother everything. They have had their share of laughs, and tears. But this time, Its more than all of that put together. Julie was diagnosed with cancer. Julie can't get through it alone, and luckily, she has Sam there to help her fight the cancer. It's a typical friendship story, only, with a lot of different twists. I would recommend this to any one, and I actually already have had a few people read the book, and they too liked it as much as I did. Comment | Was this review helpful to you?

From School Library Journal Grade 9 Up-In this unremarkable sequel to A Time for Dancing (Little, Brown, 1995), Samantha must cope with the death of her best friend as she also takes her first steps into the adult world. The first book ended with Jules's death from cancer; this one takes up Samantha's story during the following year. She is in denial, unable to deal with the loss of her longtime friend. Going to summer school in order to graduate, she befriends Mona, a troubled girl who happens to look like Jules. She and Samantha manage to find an apartment to share in San Francisco, where they both get jobs. Mona deals with her mother's mental problems and her own self-destructive behavior while Samantha buries her feelings and pushes friends and family away. When Samantha argues with her boyfriend, Mona ends up sleeping with him, nearly ending the friendship. Eventually, Samantha takes steps to come to terms with her loss. The friendship between the two girls is convincing, and... See less

Megan McCafferty's first novel, *Sloppy Firsts*, takes readers back to those angst-ridden days of high school when one wrong move can determine your status of popularity. I had so much fun reading the novel, I've already loaned my copy to my friends at work and told all my on-line buddies to grab a copy. Jessica Darling, not so aptly named, shows us a year in the life of a teenage nightmare. Her best friend, Hope, has moved away, leaving Jessica to brave high school with the rest of her friends, with whom she's not really that crazy about to begin with. Her ex-boyfriend, Scotty, still follows her around like a puppy dog, even though they dated three years ago and only for eleven days in the first place. And the dreg of society, Marcus "Krispy Kreme" Flutie, has chosen Jessica to bear the brunt of his mental games. I haven't read another book this year that made me laugh and groan in sympathy as much as *Sloppy Firsts*. This is definitely a keeper! Comment | Was this review helpful to... See less

In the sequel to Sloppy Firsts we find Jessica Darling agonizing over both her future and her love life. Jessica finally decides to move on from what happened with Marcus and begins dating her academic rival, Len Levy. But Jessica's feelings for Marcus aren't as buried as she'd like them to be, which doesn't bode well for her and Lens' relationship. Meanwhile, Jessica is determined to make the right choice for college so she isn't miserable for the next four years as well. She has her heart set on Columbia but after the 9/11 attacks she has second thoughts about attending a school in New York. I liked this book almost as much as the first one which is to say I liked it a whole darn lot. I was happy that the book continued to be realistic instead of descending into teen romance mush. I was satisfied with the ending and it seemed pretty final but I still can't help but want to read about Jessica's college exploits. Anyway, fans of the first book will be happy with this one.

Reader Rating: See Detailed Ratings November 27, 2008: I've never been one to truly enjoy reading before. Like so many others I started reading these because of the "Trueblood" series on HBO. I went out and purchased the first book and could NOT put it down until I'd read every page. The way they are able to bring a new "spin" on other things by making vampires the victims of descrimination and opression (just to name a few) is absolute genious. The very next day I went on a massive search for the other books in this series because I just had to know what happened next. Ms. Harris' writing is unique in regards to the genre' of the vampire/werewolf/shape shifter folklore we hear growing up. It is imaginative, smart, funny and it keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end. I'm still watching the TV series and loving it, but for me the books are FAR superior to the show (and I happen to think the show rocks)! Ms. Harris also has other series that I was able to find and read and... See less

From School Library Journal Grade 9 Up–Jordy, homeless, gay, and abused, finds a kindred spirit when he rescues fragile, childlike Chloe from a brutal rape near the abandoned building where they both live. Thus begins their intensely codependent friendship. When Jordy all but commits murder to protect Chloe, it only reinforces in his mind that they have no option but to leave New York City for their safety and sanity. And here, at the halfway mark, the novel takes a left turn: the teens hightail it out of the city in a beat-up pickup truck to discover America and possibly new lives. The arresting and gut-wrenching opening scene promises a gritty urban tale of survival, and despite some choppy, repetitive dialogue, Hyde makes the first half of the book succeed. But the cross-country trek quickly loses momentum with a wistful, near-philosophical shift in tone. And while Hyde's jerky, streamlined style reinforces the teens' pain, it doesn't complement their cross-country search for beauty... See less

Given her youthful appearance and complete lack of attitude, it's difficult to believe that Sarah Dessen has been publishing books for a decade. Dessen, who is 35, started early. Her first novel, That Summer , was released not long after she graduated from college, and since then, six titles have followed, five of which have been named Best Books for Young Adults by the American Library Association. That Summer , along with Dessen's second novel, Someone Like You , provided the basis for the popular 2003 movie How to Deal starring Mandy Moore. "It's gotten harder as I've gotten older," Dessen says of the writing process. "Maybe I just had more energy when I first started, but I'd also like to think there's more going on in the books now, that they're becoming more complex." There's plenty happening in her new novel, Just Listen , a fast-moving, often lyrical narrative about sisterhood and self-esteem that demonstrates the author's intuitive understanding of the pressures of...

From Publishers Weekly Acerbic heroine Jessica Darling is faced with the post-college conundrum—what now?—in McCafferty's fourth (following Sloppy Firsts, Second Helpings and Charmed Thirds). Her answer is to finally break it off with her on-again, off-again boyfriend, Marcus Flutie, who, after cleaning up his drug habit, studying Buddhism and spending some time in Death Valley, is now at Princeton. But before she can break up with him, he pops the question, and she mulls her response for a week. The bulk of the novel is made up of Jessica's satirical observations on life in New York: the tiny room in a basement sublet she shares with her best friend Hope; her nonjob for a magazine that pays so little she has to mooch off of her older sister; her friends who convince her to go to a club where she is hit on by a seven-foot-tall drag queen named Royalle G. Biv. Though the acid descriptions of city life are as hilarious as in the previous books (her landlord says of her eyebrows: Zey are... See less

From Publishers Weekly McCafferty's mixed follow-up to Fourth Comings begins with Jessica Darling running through an airport to catch a flight to her friend's wedding, only to trip over ex-boyfriend Marcus Flutie, fresh off the plane from New Orleans, where he was building houses. Jessica is reluctant to start things anew with Marcus, who had in an earlier book proposed to her and still longs for her. McCafferty does a terrific job of recounting her protagonists' pasts while keeping the story feeling fresh, and Marcus's friend Natty Addison makes for a charming foil, though the narrative really lags during part two, with 80 pages of nonstop dialogue—and a series of 54 haikus doesn't do the book any favors. Fans of the series might be hooked, but newer readers may find the intimacy irritating and even boring. McCafferty writes strong characters with rich, believable inner lives, but the attempts at formal cuteness don't allow the book to properly flourish. (Apr.) Copyright © Reed... See less

"Promise me? Promise you won't say anything?" "Don't worry." I laughed. "It's our secret, right?" According to her best friend Frankie, twenty days in ZanzibarBay is the perfect opportunity to have a summer fling, and if they meet one boy ever day, there's a pretty good chance Anna will find her first summer romance. Anna lightheartedly agrees to the game, but there's something she hasn't told Frankie---she's already had that kind of romance, and it was with Frankie's older brother, Matt, just before his tragic death one year ago. Beautifully written and emotionally honest, this is a debut novel that explores what it truly means to love someone and what it means to grieve, and ultimately, how to make the most of every single moment this world has to offer.
