| Anyone here read Sarah Dessen books? I LOVE every single book she has written... it's like if you read one of her books for the first time, you HAVE to read all the others. I'm currently reading her newest one, Just Listen. |

| Yeah, I love her books. But, I'm kinda hooked on This Lullaby, it is such a good book and I can relate a lot with Remy and the way she is/feels. Dexter is the second perfect guy ever!!!! But, Just Listen was really good, too, and I wasn't quite crazy about Dreamland, Someone Like You, or That Summer. I mean, their good books, I'm just not quite crazy about them. |

| Hey so I just finished Sarah's new book Just Listen about 5 minuets ago and I immedieatley came to the computer and searched the internet and I was so right. So I was reading along and there was this one part, where Annabel and Owen are at the concert and they go backstage to meet the band or something. And did anyone notice the connection to her other book This Lullaby. I had to look it up online just to make sure but I knew right then and there when I was reading it that she was sooooo making a connection to that book. In Just Listen when Owen and Annabel go bakstage they meet the band, called Truth Squad which I found very framiliar. Then they meet the members of the band, Dexter and some other guys as well as Remy sitting backstage with them as well. At first I recognized Dexters name at first and I thought she might just be reusing the name for fun, then I realized it I remembered reading in another one of her books I couldnt remember the title but it was about a girl Remy and she met a guy Dexter who was in a band. And sure enough it was from This Lullaby! I dont know if any of you have read both or have picked up on this but I just thought it to be super super cool for her to do that. Now I'm almost intreuged to go back and see if Owen and Annabel are mentioned anywhere in that book???? |

| Oh, I knew-I love Dexter and I have a big connection to the book This Lullaby-that Dexter part is the only reason I actually read Just Listen. Macy and Wes are also in there! |

| Oh my gosh, I love her books! I read This Lullaby a while ago, and then picked up The Truth About Forever and fell in love. That's my favorite book by her by far. |
