Summary: a long, hot summer...
That's what Macy has to look forward to while her boyfriend, Jason, is away at Brain Camp. Days will be spent at a boring job in the library, evenings will be filled with vocabulary drills for the SATs, and spare time will be passed with her mother, the two of them sharing a silent grief at the traumatic loss of Macy's father.
But sometimes unexpected things can happen—things such as the catering job at Wish, with its fun-loving, chaotic crew. Or her sister's project of renovating the neglected beach house, awakening long-buried memories. Things such as meeting Wes, a boy with a past, a taste for Truth-telling, and an amazing artistic talent, the kind of boy who could turn any girl's world upside down. As Macy ventures out of her shell, she begins to wonder, Is it really better to be safe than sorry?
Review: The Truth about Forever is one of my favorite Dessen books. It has so much in it that is just so lovable.
I instantly fell in love with Macy.
She's a girl that's gone through so much, her father has died and her family
life is a tad crazy. For some reason I just loved this aspect about Macy's
family. It felt so real and broken. I loved it even more when Macy joined
Wishbone Catering and met all these fantastic people. Now they made some great
characters.
The romance has to be my favorite part
of this entire book. Wes is amazing and he was definitely a part of Macy's
healing process. Macy changes and develops a lot during the book.
It's something that I can always expect out of Dessen books and I've come to
love it.
The Truth about Forever has an engaging storyline, an unique and fun
workplace and characters that you can actually care about.
