"What is family? They were the people who claimed you. In good, in bad, in parts or in whole, they were the ones who showed up, who stayed there, regardless." Seventeen-year old Ruby has been living on her own for the past two months since her mother left. She has no idea where her mother went, and hasn't heard from her since. Ruby has been getting by, just barely but this is about to change when the landlords of the tiny house they've been renting, discover she's alone. They alert the authorities, and suddenly Ruby is taken in by her sister Cora. Things were different when Ruby's sister Cora still lived at home, she sort of made it her job to care for Ruby and protect her from their mother. However, Cora's been gone for ten years, left when she went off to college, and Ruby's heard little from her since. This does not make for a happy reunion because Ruby doesn't want to let anyone in, let anyone close. She certainly doesn't welcome her sister's assistance. Ruby would rather just rely on herself, that way she has no one else to let her down. So she makes a plan to just stick it out at her sister's until she turns eighteen, then she's out of there. This story progresses nicely and I was seriously hooked watching the slow transformation of Ruby, seeing her thaw gradually. Helping with this is Jamie, Cora's sweet, generous, and very welcoming husband. You can't help but love him, he takes Ruby in with no questions or judgments made, always looking for the good, first, in people. Then there is Nate *sigh*. He is just the all-around popular, nice, HOT, next-door neighbor that takes to Ruby immediately, even with her reluctance. I didn't warm up to Cora at first, but then we learn some things about her, and I couldn't help but love her too. A Sarah Dessen novel would not be complete without her collection of quirky secondary characters. She always amasses these unique individuals that just grow on you. Gervais, the twelve-year old genius who rides along with Nate and Ruby everyday to school. Quote on Gervais: "Gervais also lacked maturity, which meant he found things like burps and farts hysterical, and even funnier when they were his own. Put him in a small, enclosed space with two people every morning and there was no end to the potential for hilarity." (Yes, I was cracking up!) Olivia, a fellow student at Perkins Day, always talking on her phone in her free-time, but somehow becomes friends with Ruby. Then there's Harriet the caffeine-addict, and Reggie the vitamin seller. Even Roscoe, Cora and Jamie's dog, manages to get into Ruby's heart. While, The Truth About Forever and Just Listen, are my favorite Sarah Dessen novels, this one is very good, too. A definite recommend for any contemporary romance/YA lover. Just Listen

I loved this book. It was a little slow at the beginning, but I grew to love the story and can't wait to read the sequel. Story of a pioneer family in the Arizona territories and a good love story.

Okay so. Wow. Let me just sit here and fathom what just happened. Alright. I got this. I'm good. I'm okay. So, first off, this book technically should be a 3.5. The technical stuff is a bit far fetched and there are moments where I found myself doubting or simply thinking of course. Of freakin' course. But by how I felt while reading it, how much I enjoyed every step of the way, and how I feel about it once finished, would make you think it's a 10/5. Even with hiccups, I'm able to see how awesome this book is. I can understand it's 4.20 rating, something pretty god damn high on the Goodreads scale. The entire premise and set up of the novel is what agitated me the most. Kids began dying everywhere. The survivors form these psychic abilities. Adults fear the power. Government puts them camps to "rehabilitate" but it's just a prison. The opening chapter drew me in, but all the way I resisted. I couldn't quite accept that after hundreds of thousands of children dying between the ages of eight and fourteen, they'd send the remaining living children to these prison camps. Yea, I get it. They're afraid. But again, history shows that society values children--they are the future. But now pregnancies are being banned. It doesn't really make sense to me. There are other problematic things as well including the national debt. Like, we are billions of dollars in national debt. Still doesn't stop us from spending invisible money. I don't know, I just have a hard time succumbing to it all. But once Chubs, Liam and Zu came into the picture, there was no turning back. Holy cow did I grow incredibly fond of all of them and their relationship to one another. These three are what will make you plow through the book. What I really enjoyed about them the most was that despite how horrible things had been for them previously or presently, they were still kids. I thoroughly enjoyed the Team. Enough to let other little aspects and details slip on by. Who cared if Ruby freakin' knew all the oldies despite have a ten year old's education and knowledge of the world. I loved every second of Chubs interaction with anyone, anything. I freakin' loved Chubs. (I loved all of them. I totally fell for the romance, so help me god). Ruby became quite the character. She's not aggressive, but forceful. She's suffered quite a bit of trauma and I appreciate that it never leaves her, that she is constantly dealing with it and always remembering. She's a victim, and by the end of the book, all that anger and fear is justified. You can't help but root for her to control her abilities, to be with Liam, Chubs and Zu, you can't help but want something more for her sine she spent six years having nothing at all. The ending is one of the best endings I've read in YA in a long, long time. No cheap copout. No dangling by a thread. So much is at stake, yet everything feels set in stone. It's like, a huge bolder has been rolled in and you're like WAIT WAIT WAIT STOP. And now you're standing, staring at this huge immobile wall, knowing full well that it had been rolled here, so it can be rolled back, right? RIGHT? Thank God I have the next book already.

This is arguably King's best novel. I read this in 1980 with a small stach and a pitcher of ice tea. I finished this in one night of reading. While some cultural references may have been lost in intervening years, this is still a great story and the evils of technology message is more pertinent today than ever.
