What Happened To Goodbye
Sarah Dessen, the author of What Happened to Goodbye, and so many other wonderful teen novels. What Happened to goodbye, is Sarah’s tenth book that has been written. Sarah lived in Chapel Hill, NC ever since she was little. The mom and dad both worked at the university there and that’s where Sarah went to school. She still lives in the same little town as a book writer and a teacher and her husband, who is one of the most supportive people in her life. That summer was Sarah’s first book published, in 2009 and What Happened to Goodbye, published in 2011.
Mclean is a teenager who has moved around 4 different times in the last 2 years, ever since her mom had an affair, with Gus’s favorite basketball teams coach. Gus and Mclean left. Gus, a middle aged man, is a restaurant consultant who is also Mclean’s dad. They move to Lakeside for Mclean’s senior year. Jumping from place to place Mclean changes her name every town she goes. As she moves to lakeside she chose to go with her real self, Mclean.
Mclean doesn’t find friends here, her friends are finding her. She’s not looking for a relationship, the cute neighbor boy found her. Mclean is starting to fit it and things might actually turn around and she won’t have to move in the next 6 months. She comes home to find her dad holding hands with a councilwomen and knows, her life is about to take a turn. This is all happening why her mom is trying to fight for custody; also her friends find out that Mclean is more than one person and has many different names. Now as everyone is running around trying to find out the truth Mclean leaves to go on vacation with her mom.
I enjoyed this book and thought it was one of the better ones from Sarah Dessen. She explains a lot of different situations but keeps them linked together. I would recommend this book to anybody to read. So read it for more information about what happens and where Mclean ends up going.
