Story
Remy always knows the perfect time to give a boyfriend "The Speech" telling him it's over - after the initial romantic whirl, but before the reality of an actual relationship hits. Her friends tease that her boyfriend tally is nearing the triple digit mark, but she's a girl who knows just how to avoid any messy emotional entanglement. After all, she's had the example of her five-times-married mother to show her what not to do.So what, then, is it about Dexter that makes it so hard for her to follow her own rules?

What is it about Rogerson Biscoe...and why can't she leave him?

My favorite book!
I have read this book dozens of times since I first discovered it as a kid and its always spoken to me like no other book has (other than the HP series) so when i saw the audio version i was ecstatic! Overall the book is awesome, the storyline hooks you within the first page, but the narrator is very bland and boring so much so that it almost made me not want to listen to it but i toughed it out. I'm not an expert but i feel i would of done a way better job at reading it out loud.

This has been a favorite book of mine for a while. I love love Sarah dessen. The narrator is ok. You get used to her after the first chapter. I feel she is slightly nasally and her male voices make me laugh. But I appreciate the effort she puts into different voices so I can follow the dialogue easier.
