Last year, Annabel was "the girl who has everything" — at least that's the part she played in the television commercial for Kopf's Department Store.
This year, she's the girl who has nothing: no best friend because mean-but-exciting Sophie dropped her, no peace at home since her older sister became
anorexic, and no one to sit with at lunch. Until she meets Owen Armstrong.
Tall, dark, and music-obsessed, Owen is a reformed bad boy with a commitment to truth-telling. With Owen's help, maybe Annabel can face what happened the
night she and Sophie stopped being friends.

I love a book driven by strong characters and Sarah Dessen never fails to deliver in that respect.
Her characters are so real, you find yourself falling into their lives, into the pages.
There comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart. So you'd better learn the sound of it. Otherwise you'll never understand what it's saying
Dessen does it again: making me connect and feel things for characters I have nothing in common with.
Книга о секретах, страхах и, наверное, о каждом из нас. О том, как бывает тяжело, и не с кем разделить эту тяжесть. О том, что даже родные могут не знать нас и наполовину. О том, что зачастую проще довериться малознакомому человеку чем семье. О том, что спасительная ложь, заполняющая жизнь, - зло, и в ней можно потерять себя навсегда. Только если не произойдет чудо и не появится человек, неважно кто - мужчина или женщина, который сможет тебя “держать” не смотря ни на что.
