Just One Day-- Gayle Forman

920 minutes

Since I have talked about the books in the Touch Series (Deadly Little ____) I will talk about Just One Day.  Gayle Forman has become one of my favorite authors since I found her work.  This book is about a girl, Allison aka Lulu, who goes on this adventure in Europe when she sneaks off from her group.  The writing is amazing and the word choice puts you in the scene.  Emotions are portrayed in nearly every page and I read it straight through, well into the night just so I could finish it.  It resembles If I Stay and Where She Went also by Forman because in the first book it is in the POV of one person and in the next the POV of another while carrying on with the story.  I really like this kind of writing and I cant wait until the next book comes in, which will be a while (:( ) but I'll wait.

I think I'm going to do my reading for Nervous Conditions now, so bye!!!! :)

  1. OK so i see what must be a series by Laurie Faria Stolarz right? So what are these books about? They must be pretty interesting if you read them all in a week! I'm looking for a new series to start reading so do you think this would be a good one?
