Friday , October 28
So I didn't blog on Friday so I'm making up for it today. On Friday I went over to my friend's house and we watched Scream 4. The Scream movies are really some of the best scary movies, because they are scary, but not to scary. I love pigging out with my girls.

Book Review: What Happened to Goodbye
What Happened to Goodbye.
By: Sarah Dessen
Critique:
I read the book What Happened to Goodbye. I thought this book was very well written and very interesting. While I was reading it I didn't want to put the book down because I always wanted to know what was going to happen next. The author, Sarah Dessen, did a very good job with writing this book. She really knows how to write to the teenage audience.
What Happened to Goodbye is a book about a girl named Mclean and her father moving to many different towns in a very short period of time. In each town they move to, Mclean not only changes her name, but completely changes her personality. When she moves to Lakeview, she wants to become a girl named "Liz" but that doesn't really work out. For the first time since she moved away from her first home she was actually making friends, and being herself. Her dad owns a restauraunt in Lakeview, but he was planning on moving to Hawaii in the near future. Mclean did not want to go with him because this was the first time she had ever really met someone she really cared about, a guy named Dave. In the end of the book her father ends up moving to Hawaii, and Mclean gets to stay in Lakeview and live with her dad's girlfriend named Riley.
I think Sarah Dessen did a beautiful job writing this book. She made sure that for anyone who read this book that it would not be boring or confusing. I never got bored reading this book , because there was something always going on. I've read most of Sarah's books and I think What Happened to Goodbye is her best written book so far. I think her intent of this book was to show teenagers that being themself is a good thing. Becoming someone you aren't will never be good in the long run. Also, I think that Sarah did a good job with describing the divorce between Mclean's mother and father. I think that in writing about it, that she showed teenagers that they don't have to hate either their mother or the father because they got divorced. Also that if the teenager is bottling up any hatred towards their parents, it's always better to talk to them about it then just ignoring them.
I think What Happened to Goodbye was definently a success. I think that not only the book was very good and very addicting to read, but it was also a very good book that you could learn from. The overall theme of the book was that you never have to be someone or something that you aren't because you were made the way you are for a reason. I learned that being myself is a good thing, and to always be good to not only my friends, but my parents because your parents will always be there. Im definently happy that I read this book and I would recommend anybody, both boys and girls, to read it. If they read it, it could be a life lesson and just a very good book . I think overall this book was very beautiful and a very good read.
