This Lullaby
by Sarah Dessen
"This Lullaby" is the first Sarah Dessen book I have read. I have heard great things about her and so I was really looking forward to reading this. But sadly, I was really disappointed.
I hate that I'm writing this, but I just didn't like this book. The story itself isn't bad and the writing is pretty good, but I just couldn't relate to the characters at all, especially Remy. Although I do kind of understand why she is the way she is, I hated her personality. Most of the time, I just wanted to kill her for behaving a certain way and when that wasn't the case, I was just bored by her. I was so bored, in fact, that I didn't even finish reading this book, and that doesn't happen very often. My opinion is, if the characters aren't good, then the book can't possibly be either.
But, of course, there are a lot of other people who seem to like this book, so I guess it depends on the person who reads it.
