Review: The Day We Met

Hott Synopsis
“You have to stand for something or you’ll fall for anything.”

That is a lesson most teenagers learn the hard way – and Lenna is no exception. She stifles her morals for the opportunity to be a part of the popular crowd and some time with the senior she’s admired from afar… and finds herself in way over her head.

Now, faced with the consequences of her own mistakes Lenna trudges through the horror known as high school and the unwanted miracle of pregnancy.

Hott Review

When the author, Dusti Bowling, contacted me with the request that I review this book I thought it looked interesting. But then I just kept moving it down in my TBR pile. Mistake. I’m kicking myself like you wouldn’t believe for not reading this earlier.

It was amazing to me how much I hurt for for Lenna, how I just wanted to hold her (and her parents), and how much I wanted to kick her in the rear for being so silly!

Dusti Bowling was able to pull so very much into this book! Teenage Pregnancy. Depression. Forgiveness. Peer Pressure. Lying. Blaming God.

Thank you, Dusti! This has gone on my short list of favorites!!

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
