TLV is different from her previous work in that she uses third person, which seemed to fall flat for some readers. But it didn't bother me. I'm curious to see what you think of this one!Emilynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5689237444917451564.post-38234305354381777302013-06-29T21:00:37.324+01:002013-06-29T21:00:37.324+01:00I haven't read anything by this author before....I haven't read anything by this author before.

Plus, I'm weird, but I love it when a book makes you think about it a few days before you can actually decide whether you loved it or if it fell flat. That is the mark of a good book ;) Great review, Leanna!Melissa (i swim for oceans)http://www.iswimforoceans.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5689237444917451564.post-87699056040992805052013-06-27T10:58:20.128+01:002013-06-27T10:58:20.128+01:00Always happy to post your reviews, lovely! :) How ...Always happy to post your reviews, lovely! :) How to Save a Life is on my TBR so I'll have to check that one out sometime soon. :)daisychainbooksnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5689237444917451564.post-55577964366392186992013-06-27T10:40:49.336+01:002013-06-27T10:40:49.336+01:00I have a copy of this and I really unsure about gi...I have a copy of this and I really unsure about giving it a try due to the mixed reviews, but I think I will have to give it a try now after your gorgeous review Emily. I like the sound of how Zarr lets you take a step back and think about things instead of forcing everything onto you. Lovely review! :)Jaspritnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5689237444917451564.post-65520776232780423582013-06-27T01:29:15.028+01:002013-06-27T01:29:15.028+01:00Thanks for your lovely comment, Briana.

However, I do have this one in my review pile and I think I'll be moving it up after this review. I get the feeling I'll be able to relate to Lucy in the respect of the whole "passion for something" element. Judging from your review, I predict that I'll fall more towards the "love" category, hopefully. lol. Thanks for posting such a helpful review. :D<br /><br /><br />~BrianaThe Book Pixiehttp://thebookpixie.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5689237444917451564.post-74004674868509591682013-06-26T22:46:39.670+01:002013-06-26T22:46:39.670+01:00I've yet to read any Sara Zarr books.

Makes the books more believable. Glad you enjoyed this one, I'll have to check it out! Great review :).Liz @ Planet Printnoreply@blogger.com
