My Life Next Door

Product Information

Even though at times I was irritated with the parents for having baby after baby, leaving the older ones to pick up the slack. Yet when the unthinkable happens and tragedy strikes, Samantha will have to think hard between making the right decision, making the wrong one could ultimately destroy both the families that she loves. She can’t see how good and loving these people are because her mind is clouded by the stereotype; messy yard, large brood equates to trailer trash!

I might combust from butterflies each time he opens his thoughtful mouth - and it keeps getting better and better! The republished paperback edition from Electric Monkey has a lifetime sales figure of 8601 units in the United Kingdom.

It hurt me to see him go through these bad stages when he struggled with his drug and alcohol addiction and I was cheering him on as he slowly battled his addictions and became a better person.

Samantha Reed's character is, I think, one of the best — probably in the top ten, actually — YA heroines I've ever come across since I began reading YA fiction back in 2008.

What I mean is that I have no clue about why this (wonderfully profound as always) sentence is blush worthy. First and foremost, one of the main issues that can be seen even from the beginning of the novel is the fact that Sam’s mother hates Jase’s family. Everything was going so good and fun and then there was too much Tim, some horrible stupid thing Sam's mom does <-- and they all sit around like we should just ignore it. There were some heavy issues, such as substance addiction, jealousy, friendships unraveling, as well as the fine line between the right and wrong.
