Last Chance by Sarah Dessen

I've finally finished this amazing book and eventually, Colie finds the friends and romance she's been dreaming of all her life. Colie has been sent to North Carolina by her mother for the summer. She works in the Last Chance Cafe and is hoping that this will be her last journey. All her life she's been travelling from place-to-place with her mother, until one day her mother became a famous tv host of a fitness programme. After that, her life changed forever.

I think this book is great because the author has used a combination of dialogue and humour to create a very emotional but 'real' story.

My favourite quotation from the book is: ' The rest of my early memories are all of the highway... Only a few things stayed the same. My mother and I were both fat... And we were always together, us against the world,'. I like this phrase because it says that even though she's changed she'll always remember her past.

I give this book a star rating of 4 out of 5!
