Dedication Audiobook

" I stuck it out through the end, but I just couldn't respect the character. Dreadful. "

" Okay, but like the Nanny Diaries, a bit unbelievable. "

" This was bad, man. I thought the whole thing was so farfetched, and I just wanted all these people to get over freakin' high school! As a funny aside, Saadia said this book was a good argument in favor of homeschooling (lol, Miriam) because of these adults' ridiculous obsession with people and events from high school. Don't people move on? Weren't there any college sweethearts? Friends? Basically, the whole thing was just so unbelievable, the characterization and dialogue mediocre, etc. These chicks should have stopped after "The Nanny Diaries." "

" Well, I have to say that I really liked this book. Maybe because I grew up in VT and that is where it is set, or maybe because I amcurrently obsessed with books taking place during highschool- you will have to read it and find out for yourself! "

" Following the plot through flashbacks definitely kept me turning pages, and kept me interested! "

" I love how many times this book made me laugh out loud. Great read. "

" Not a great book by any means...but it made me so nostalgic. "

" Good read - didn't love it as much as Nanny Diaries, however they explore the whole "what if" of high school relationships-went-wrong.. I think anyone could relate! "

" Has the lightness and humor of Nanny's Diaries and the heaviness of social criticism of Citizen girl. Overall a good read and an accurate portrayal of blinding power of love. "

" so far....confusing!!!!!!!:( "

" SO much fun and a fantastic ending I didn't see coming. "

" Funny, great characters, and (finally!) a good, realistic ending. "

" This book seems completely implausible, but I loved every indulgent second (and pop culture reference). It's ridiculous, but fun. A good weekend escape. "

" don't remember when i read it, but remember it leaving a weird taste in my mouth. wasn't as awesome and nostalgic as i thought it was going to be. "

" It is hard to effectively rate this book. It poses as chick-lit, but doesn't really fit the bill. All in all I enjoyed it. There is an entire chapter dedicated to UVA, which made me want to squeal in appreciation for my almer mater. "

" loved, Loved, LOVED this book! I liked it so much I'm listening to it on audio now. "

" This is was a fun, quick read. I'm looking forward to seeing nanny diaries. "

" This was the perfect plane book. "

" some fun pop-culture references for those of us that grew up in the 80's or 90's, but a disappointment after the nanny diaries; definitely not as heart-felt. "

" The blurb intrigued me, but the story fell flat. Its hard when you can't relate to any of the characters "

" I am definitely too old to appreciate this book--Katie wanted to make Jake regret his existence but I was the one who regretted picking up this book. The 80s references were understandable but Katie's inability to "get over it" was not. "

" You know, I liked this book. I would've rated it a 3.5 if that were an option. It was a very nice, very quick beachy read. "

" Loved it but wasn't a fan of the ending "

" This book struck a chord with me. It dragged out some old hurts and stuff that would be great it never reared their ugly head. So as a 26 year old woman, I relate with with still wanting to make someone pay way past the point of it being healthy. "

" Past and present well-woven, story came out bit by bit in interesting way. Totally related to the loss-of-what-you-thought-at-the-time-was-amazing-first-love-but-realize-later-it's-not-right-for-you-as-a grown-up theme. "

" Just okay. Not as good as The Nanny Diaries. "

" A story about friendship, love, and closure. "

" This is not their best, but I did enjoy it. Imagine if your high school boyfriend grew up to be a famous musician and all his songs are about your time with him. THAT is what this book is about and it was fascinating. "

" I read this quite a while ago and remember that I totally hated the ending. The book was okay, but I wanted to rip it in half at the end. "

" Predictable and kind of boring. I expected more from the Nanny Diaries people...although I did enjoy the cultural flashbacks to things when I was in elementary/high school. "

" I love how the author alternates the chapters between the present and Katie's highschool years. So far so good! "

" surprisingly fun book to read. i've read two others by this author and this was a nice departure from the nanny books. the end seemed kinda rushed but predictable. still a fun read. "
