It showed positives and negatives in a more contemplative manner and it was so much more overall than just the romance. MY LIFE NEXT DOOR is less fluffy and more… I wouldn’t say serious, but I guess realistic. Nothing really led me to believe this aside from the cover and blurb but it was a bit hard to shake when I first started reading! I’m really glad I didn’t let my preconceived notions get in the way because this was really a beautiful book. MY LIFE NEXT DOOR was actually really different than what I thought it would be - not in a bad way, but I was expecting it to be a light and fluffy contemporary, leaning more towards the feel of ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS or ON THE FENCE. When I heard about Penguin Teen’s “ The Blog Most Likely To…” promo, I knew the time was absolutely perfect to start it and yes, the stars aligned! I’m SO happy that I finally read MY LIFE NEXT DOOR!
