Last night I started and finished the book Dreamland by Sarah Dessen. I wasn't expecting it to be so good. I started reading it, and I literally could not put it down. I tried, but I just kept thinking about it, and wondering what would happen next... so I just kept reading. It was about a teenage girl, Caitlin, who was always overshadowed by her sister. Her sister, Cass, was a straight "A" student and destined to go to Yale, but she ran away with a guy she met at the beach, leaving Caitlin alone. Caitlin was determined to be as different as her sister as she could, but she just kept falling into the things that her sister would do until she met Rogerson. He was everything a girl should stay away from, but that's what drew her to him. It ended up being an amazing story about a girl who fell apart, but finally pieced herself back together.
