Customer Reviews

I enjoyed the book

I love this book despite other reviews from various websites. It put together the early years of Hannah and her life in Lake Eden. I enjoyed the diary portion of the book.

A stand alone book, not a continuation of the series

Let me start by saying that I love this series!! I wait for the author to spit these out and always wish that she would type faster!! Was waiting for this book as I was hoping to find out what happened to Hannah after she found out that she wasn't married to Ross. You will not find out in this book. After waiting for that conclusion, you can imagine my disbelief when the author took a step back in time. I never read the previews on books from favorite authors, I just buy the books. If you just read this book just on the basis of it as a story involving Hannah and the rest of her gang, you will enjoy it. It explains what is going on in Hannah's life right after her dad passed away. And yet it is so different from the previous books. It felt stiff and deviated from the previous books. Almost like the author was trying to rewrite the past of our beloved Hannah. If you, like me, were hoping to find out what is next in Hannah's life, well it isn't in here. But is a good story.
