Customer Reviews

I couldn't put it down!

Laura Peyton Roberts has done it again! I couldn't put this one down either! I especially liked the way she is so detailed, you feel as though you are watching the story take place right before your eyes. She picks topics that really relate to teenagers, any one of EIGHT PRIME could really be me or my friends! She keeps me hanging at the end with her cliff hangers, that is the only draw-back to the Clearwater Crossing series. I can't wait to get my hands on the next book to find out what happens with Jenna and Peter, Melanie and Jesse, Nicole and Guy, Leah and Miguel, Ben, and Sarah!

Another 5 star book from Laura Peyton Roberts

Who knew that after one boring day in the bookstore I would end up this obsessed with a series? The Clearwater Crossing series is truly an original series, and I love it! I love how Roberts can make you involved in each one of the lives of Eight Prime. Hope Happens is a good example of how she can make you look into the deepest depth of the character's souls. I now feel connected to each character, and I can't wait until the next book comes out. The book will make you laugh, cry, and smile with joy! I would recommend it to anybody looking for a wholesome good read.

Wonderfully Done-Again!

This book-as the others-wonderfully displays how teens today cope with life's accidents. They portray how we feel almost always, and while I've never coped with anyone I love being in a car accident, I know that I would feel just as horrible as the next person. L.P.Roberts did an excellent job with this book as in the last 11 books-I've read (and have) them all. So, I believe that these books are easy, and good for us all. Maybe they're good because they take our focus off of us and let us see other people's problems and lives in a new light. I recommend this book (and series) to anyone who needs a "breather" from all the hype that is associated with us teens.
