Not Just For Teens!!

"First of all, I need to say that you do not need to be a teen to enjoy this book. If you are a teen, or have ever been a teen, you will enjoy this story! I have a soft spot in my heart for Young Adult Fiction, even though I am 32! I think the struggles of teen life is something that we can all relate to, young or "old".
This is the first book I have ever read by Deb Caletti, but it won't be the last! Her writing style is very simple and down to earth. The chapters were nicely sized and for someone like me (who has to finish one more chapter before bed!) that's always a plus.
The story itself was quite moving. By just glancing at the story, I assumed that the story was based on a teen boy! Or maybe young love? But it's not! Not to give too much away, the book is basically about the main character, Quinn and her father. Quinn's father is a regular cassanova and downright con-man, leaving broken hearts and empty promises in his wake. Quinn teams up with her two sisters to try and erase some of the damage their father has done in the past. Can she right his wrongs and learn a few secrets about love in the process?
All in all, a great book. A great gift for a teen in your life, or any woman who has felt the sting of heartache. I cannot wait to get my hands on another of her books!"
