Has anyone ever read any of her books?
I've read
Keeping the Moon and Someone Like You
and I'm reading
Just Listen This Lullaby
and soon Dreamland
I love her...a lot. I can't wait to get the three I'm missing (Truth about Forever, This Summer, and Lock and Key.)
If anyone has read any of her books.
What do you think?

They're like coming of age/romance books.
Keeping the Moon is about a girl named Colie who's mother coined this like new weightloss method and has a big company (her and her mother both used to be fat) and since becoming skinny everyone thinks she's easy. Her mother goes on this trip and sends her to live with her great aunt who she doesn't know in a town she's never been to. She doesn't really have any friends so it doesn't matter much to her. There's these two girls who live in a little house behind her aunts house and work at a dinner who she meets, and they help her grow up along with the fry cook there who is like the last person she would ever expect to be friends with never mind fall in love with.
they're all sort of like that, different girls different problems, and different stories. Boys are always involved but sometimes they don't end with happy love. They're just...about growing up, and usually they're pretty realistic and written really really well.

I've only read "Just Listen" but I thought it was awesome and wouldn't mind getting a hold of another one of her books soon...

Of her's i've read: Someone Like You, The Truth About Forever, and This Lullaby. This Lullaby was my favorite--mostly because of the relationship between the two main characters--Remy and Dexter. But oh, I love them all. ♥ I wanna get around to reading Just Listen for sure, because I read a bit of it at a friend's house and got intrigued, but the time is yet to approach me. T.T
Sarah Dessen rocks socks--she could write a story about a dog pooping and it'd be fantastic.
