One of Those Hideous Books Where the Mother Dies by Sonya Sones

3.0

Man, I'm on a verse-novel kick lately!

This is the first Sones book I've ever read, and it really reminded me of [a:Alyson Noel|200317|Alyson Noel|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1360452950p2/200317.jpg]'s beginning novels. The tone similarity was striking. Granted, Noel's books weren't written in verse, but they were very similar.

So, with that said, I really enjoyed it.

I've always liked a little contemporary. I really liked how in this book, the plot started thin, and then it thickened right before your eyes, until all the plot lines blurred before your eyes. I love the theme of separated best friends and couples, along with the trust issues that come with them. The twist at the end of this book I TOTALLY called, by the way, but enjoyed it nevertheless. The end's resolution was cute and cheesy, and this book provided what I've been needing: something light, fluffy and enjoyable.
