After finishing Someone Like You by Sarah Dessen, I wanted to read another book by Sarah Dessen. I picked up The Lullaby because I thought it might be similar to Someone Like You. I just started this book this week, and so far I really like it. This week I read the full 120 minutes and read 65 pages. I am a slow reader, so I tend to read at this pace. Although the two previous books that I have read are similar because they are written by the same author, they are also pretty different.
So far, they have introduced the main character and a few of her friends. They have also written a bit about her family. Remy is 18 years old, and has a mom who writes romance novels. Her mom is getting ready to have her fourth marriage. Her mom spends most of her time writing, instead of taking care of Remy and her brother. Remy has just recently graduated high school, and she looks forward to leaving her house. It seems as if she has trouble with relationships because she never seems to keep a boyfriend for very long. She does not like when boys flirt with her. In fact when a boy named Dexter tried to flirt with her, she reluctantly started to call him names. Remy also hangs out with a group of girls who drink and smoke. It seems as if these girls are rebellious. They all like to party, and they act as if they are 10 years older than they actually are. From what I have read, Remy is currently dating a guy named Johnny who is a bad boy. She wants to break up with him. I think that she will leave Johnny and end up dating Dexter. She will also attend college soon, and I think something bad will happen. Usually Sarah Dessen writes novels that have some sort of conflict, and I have yet to find out what this conflict is yet. I look forward to what ends up happening.
