What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen

3.0

---

After her parents divorce, Mclean and her dad move frequently for her dad's job. Each move causes Mclean to take on a new identity, but this most recent move finds her returning to her true self. As the school year progresses, and she makes friends, she feels more tied to this community and doesn't want to leave. Add to that the fact that her mother would like a better relationship with her, and Mclean has some soul searching to do. All of this comes to a head when she finds out her dad's next assignment.

I am a huge fan of Sarah Dessen, and this book does not disappoint from a fan standpoint. It holds true to her authentic teen life situation and character development. It's also great to see characters from other books making appearances in this one!
