Bittersweet - Sarah OcklerPublished : 3rd January 2012
Publisher : Simon Pulse
I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Sarah Ockler. I read Fixing Delilah and wasn't very impressed. She is a very popular author and I just had much higher exceptions. I didn't give up though and finished the book, it was ok but since then I have been wanting to see if Twenty Boy Summer is any better, then I heard about this book and have been wanting to read it soon. I think it definitely has potential judging by the blurb but for me it will be how it's written and whether I connect with Hudson.

The Blurb :
Once upon a time, Hudson knew exactly what her future looked like. Then a betrayal changed her life, and knocked her dreams to the ground. Now she’s a girl who doesn’t believe in second chances... a girl who stays under the radar by baking cupcakes at her mom’s diner and obsessing over what might have been.
So when things start looking up and she has another shot at her dreams, Hudson is equal parts hopeful and terrified. Of course, this is also the moment a cute, sweet guy walks into her life... and starts serving up some seriously mixed signals. She’s got a lot on her plate, and for a girl who’s been burned before, risking it all is easier said than done.
It’s time for Hudson to ask herself what she really wants, and how much she’s willing to sacrifice to get it. Because in a place where opportunities are fleeting, she knows this chance may very well be her last..

I loved Twenty Boy Summer and this one looks good too!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so cute! And I love the cover!
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll get to read this one soon, because - even though I haven't read anything by Sarah Ockler myself - I've heard really good things about this one. Hope you'll like it more than Fixing Delilah. :)
ReplyDeleteI started reading Bittersweet on Pulse IT but I didn't finish it before it was gone. I can't wait to pick it up and read it! Here's my WoW!
