I actually have never read Sarah Dessen's books, (I know!) so I don't know if it counts, but I've heard a ton about What Happened To Forever, and I'd really like to read it eventually, like all of her other books. That's why I really really hope I win this!

I've only read This Lullaby so far (really liked it), but I've got The Truth About Forever sitting on my shelf waiting to be read and I really, really want to get ahold of What Happened to Goodbye when it comes out in paperback.

Amanda said...

I don't have a favorite Sarah Dessen book - all of them shine in their own way. They're all very personal and emotional. If I had to choose one, though, it would be a close call between The Truth Abot Forever, Lock and Key, and What Happened to Goodbye.

Alicia said...

I love all of her books, but my two favorites are Along for the Ride and Lock & Key!

Lisa said...

Lock and Key is definitely my favorite by far. But it is hard to choose because all of them are so well written.

Summer McDaniel said...

My favorite is What Happened to Goodbye. Lock and Key & Along for the Ride are really close up there though. I absolutely love Sarah Dessen, perfect for anybody but especially us teenagers because we can relate :)

Jenna said...

My favorite is What Happened to Goodbye.

Carey said...

Every Sarah Dessen book is my favorite! I would have to say THE TRUTH ABOUT FOREVER though, just because I loved how Wes and Macy's relationship formed and grew throughout the entire book. I also love ALONG FOR THE RIDE, just because of Eli in general. I love them all, though!

You can contact me at my email, which is careycs@yahoo.com

Asking me to chose my favorite book by Sarah Dessen is not like as Miss Abbey on Dance Moms to chose her favorite student. If I had to chose though it would have to be Thia Lullaby or The Truth About Forever or Justin Listen.

I've only read her first two books; I'm trying to read them in order. So out of those, Someone Like You has been my favorite.

My favorite Sarah Dessen book is Just Listen. I live how Owen helps Anabel so much through out the book and how she gets to know herself and everyone else so much better.

My favorite Sarah Dessen novel would have to be This Lullaby. It tells the tale of a smart, cynical girl who's outlook on love was formed from her mother's countless marriages and her own failed relationships. But when the boy who has all the qualities of a person not to date flings himself at her, can she resist? You add a loveless girl, a great set of girlfriends, a super cute lead singer, and a dog named Monkey, and you have This Lullaby.

My favorite Sarah Dessen book is The Truth About Forever. It is such a good love story but it also shows the secret world of romance. Not many people write about a love story like Jason and Macy's but I have had many friends get stuck in that kind of relationship and get really hurt and feel confused or even trapped. I just started reading again for the fifth time and cannot put it down. I have read all of her books but this one to me is my absolute favorite.

Tori said...

Just Listen is by far my favorite. It was the first of her books I read and I fell in love with her writing. It was a great! I have reread that book almost 20 times and it never gets old! <3

I really loved the book the Truth About Forever. I've read the book at least twelve times!! I love the cover changes to the books but it'd be cool if the Lock and Key cover was one of the key necklaces that go through some of tje other books, and if the cover of the Truth About Forever was the angelic sculpture Wes made with wings for Macy.

I read one or two of Dessen's books in high school, but I only remember this b/c I have copies (with much older covers!). I don't remember reading them and mean to re-read these, so for now, I'll say I haven't read her. I would especially love to read DREAMLAND because I hear the book is amazing and one of her best!

BTW, that key is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!! *drool*

My favorite is Just Listen, though all of them are really good.

My top 3 are The Truth About Forever, Along for the Ride, and This Lulliby. There's no way to pick a favorite. I've read all of Sarah's books many times each. They are all so subtle but strong. I love how she always brings the story full circle. She also writes great characters and makes me like guys I probably wouldn't in real life.

Rachel said...

I've read all of your books, but my favorite of all is 'Just Listen'. I was going through a rough time in my life and that book helped me see my way through and come to a better understanding about myself. All of your books are amazing and I always have them around to pick up and read over and over again. It never gets old!.

I haven't read any of Sarah Dessen's books in full, but I plan to read The Truth About Forever because many fans seem to like that one the best. (extemter at hotmail dot com)

My favorite Sarah Dessen novel is Along for the Ride! I love how Auden's perception about different topics changes throughout the book, and I can relate to many of her insecurities. My second favorite is this one, Lock and Key. I appreciate how Ruby learns to define family and let people in to her life. Sarah Dessen is amazing!

This is a tough one. I've read them all and love them all but I'd have to say my absolute favorite is The Truth About Forever.

I also read a section from TTAF to my Voice and Articulation class for one of my projects.. did it for This Lullaby too haha which I am currently re-reading for the 4th time. Obsessed. I know. Which is why I'd love to win this book!!!

A while back, I would've said The Truth About Forever is my favorite Sarah Dessen book. But that was before I read What Happened to Goodbye. That book changed me because it's so true to MY story. I love all of her books, but for me, What Happened to Goodbye is my favorite book ever (not just Sarah Dessen book).

I love the new Sarah Dessen covers. The only book by her that I've read is Just Listen, but I've heard that it is a lot of people's favorite. I also love how all the new covers go together much better than the older ones. Not only is the spine similar, but so are the covers.
