Waiting For You

Now I don’t know about you but my typical reads are between Paranormal YA and New Adult BUT I always have to slip in a good chick lit or realistic fiction to keep the equilibrium, so I think I can officially add Susane Colasanti to the list of reliable sources. Waiting for you was a coming of age story of High School Sophomore Marisa. Colasanti built Marisa’s character to be slightly dark and high school bright at the same time, but it was done masterfully. While probably somewhere in Chapter 2 I could tell you what the end of the story looked like, I don’t think the ending was as important as the middle. The “in between” of this book was what did it for me, the building of Marisa’s character, the mystery behind Dirty Dirk, and the relationships between all of the characters. So, overall liked the book, it’s not a book I’ll read again, but it did fulfill my chick lit needs

I had a project and chose to go with this book as a teen.Veeerrry easy to interpret and make a connection with real life. LOVED! It....dont even like reading books, but Susane Colasanti keeps me asking to go get another book.

This book was...wow!! Every character has their own drama and makes you want to find out what happens next.
