It is a departure for her; she tends to write about relationships, but I liked this one.

I handed it off to my teenage daughter (although if I recommend something she doesn't necessarily think I know what I'm talking about) because I think the story is one that most teens could relate to. The idea of putting something personal online and the repercussions of this seem to be difficult for teenagers to understand. I like Giffin's books (at least most of them) and appreciate that they are easy to read and enjoyable.Tina's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313626164494986783noreply@blogger.com
