Narrative In Pursuance Of Books My Life Next Door
"One thing my mother never knew, and would disapprove of most of all, was that I watched the Garretts. All the time." The Garretts are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, messy, affectionate. And every day from her rooftop perch, Samantha Reed wishes she was one of them . . . until one summer evening, Jase Garrett climbs up next to her and changes everything. As the two fall fiercely for each other, stumbling through the awkwardness and awesomeness of first love, Jase's family embraces Samantha - even as she keeps him a secret from her own. Then something unthinkable happens, and the bottom drops out of Samantha's world. She's suddenly faced with an impossible decision. Which perfect family will save her? Or is it time she saved herself? A transporting debut about family, friendship, first romance, and how to be true to one person you love without betraying another.

What I loved about this book:1. NO teenage angst from Samantha2. NO teenage drama with the main characters3. Jase and Samantha were very mature 17-year-olds (very refreshing)4. GEORGE5. The Garrett family6. The easy, loving, trusting and patient relationship Jase has with Samantha 7. I LOVED that this book put a smile on my face and made me laugh almost the entire book. Although it did have me teary eye a little bit at one point. :o)8. FINALLY I loved that this book sucked me in and never wantedThis book was worth waiting for. I've read it in two days despite the fact that I was head over heels in all that boring end-of-the-school-year paperwork that us, teachers, are so fond of. First, I can not believe that this is Huntley Fitzpatrick's debut novel. I've read so many bad books lately and those autors didn't have the excuse of first attempt in their writing carieers. My Life Next Door reminded me a lot of Sarah Dessen novels - by the concept and the writing style. And I love Sarah

And even though Sams mom told her to never ever have contact with them she cant help but stare at them all the time.And one night while shes spying them, Jase comes to rescue her. Hey, need
Why, thank you book for all these wonderful platitudes. We need to part ways now though, at 35%, but don't worry, I'll compile here every amazing moment we shared together.► Remember when Jase and Sam fell in love over a lemonade at 9%? Because I was there to follow their astounding banter and was deeply moved by the slow burn of their feelings.... "He drains the entire thing in one gulp, then reaches for the other cup. "That's mine," I say."Oh, jeez. Of course. Sorry. I am thirsty."I extend my
Rating: 2.5 StarsEverything about My Life Next Door screams summer chick-flick! From its flirty cover, to its sappy title, to its shockingly bright synopsis, youd think you couldnt go wrong with this book. I was expected a Sarah Dessen type novel and what I got instead is something I can only relate to authors who I happen to loathe like Stephanie Meyer or Becca Fitzpatrick, even though theyre not contemporary authors. I think what pains me the most is that I really liked the first half of
Rating: 4.95 brilliant, beautiful, breathtaking stars out of 5!FACT #1: I'm not a contemporary girl. I love paranormal books way more than my realistic ones; worlds that don't really exist enthrall me way more than real ones do. Because those supernatural books are usually more badass, intense, and fun than everyday romances.FACT #2: My Life Next Door totally voids the first fact!!Where can I even start with how much I loved this book? How much it took me surprise, grabbed my heart, and wouldn't
My Life Next Door is the kind of story that you expect to be light and fluffy . . . but then it surprises you.I thought this book would be very cliché: little rich girl falls for the boy next door; gets a whole new perspective on life through the eyes of a financially-strained, but very happy unlike her own family; and learns something big about herself over the course of one short summer. In a lot of ways, that is what this book is about. But, in truth, it is about so much more.Samantha
