summerrae87 's review for:
What We Left Behind
by Robin Talley
Toni and Gretchen fell in love at first sight -- but can that love be sustained with so many changes? Toni thought her and Gretchen would go to college together and never be apart, and Gretchen thought they'd get married one day. However, Gretchen secretly decides to go on her own to NYU instead of Boston as planned, causing a whirlwind story of two people trying to find their way in the world on their own for the first time. At Harvard, Toni joins a local GSA group and gains a large and supportive set of friends, while at NYU Gretchen meets Carroll, who openly brags of his sexuality while hiding his insecurities about life. Toni makes a life-changing decision without Gretchen, and they discover their relationship just might not be able to handle change -- especially a decision that will affect everything around them. This book gave me mixed feelings, rushing from one controversy to another without any real time to think. I would recommend this to anyone who is or knows someone who may be struggling with change or transition in their life, providing different outlooks for major life choices.
