Customer Reviews

I couldn't put it down!

I bought this book and it took me four hours to read it! I couldn't put it down. In the beginning of the book, I got so impatient with the character, Zoey. I felt like jumping in the pages and shaking her a bit. Lucas is toooooo sweet to be treated like that, although he did kiss Nina, but sooooo what! I like Paolo. Clair needs to get off her high horse and realize that not all guys are scum. I'm hooked on Applegates series the "Animorph", "Everworld", and the "Making Out",but I think the "Making Out" series holds the torch. Even if the "Making Out" series dies, we still can reread the books. (I've read every Animorph book twice and it didn't hurt. So I'm wierd...so what!) Who knows, Maybe we can follow them through college. Other writers are successful in doing so. I would like to see if Lucas and Zoey wed...It is a natural thing to marry. I would like to see if Ben and Nina hook up. Also Jake and Clair? Possibility. But Lara is dead. Let her go. She's not Elvis! But in any event... Keep up the good work K.A. Applegate.

great book!

this book was great! zoey still needs to losen up and stop being such a snob. paolo and claire make a funny couple- i'm glad she's (finally) found someone who likes her for who she is, not for what she looks like. this book was great for anyone who likes this series or who likes sweet valley! =) ps: how do you pronouce paolo? pah-oh-low? paul-oh? pay-ah-low? pay-oh-low? how?

AWESOME COOL MAN!

this was my absouloute fav! But i hate Paolo! i Cant find out how to pernounce his name! Claire Should Tottally dump him for sure! I still can't get over laura's death! I can not belive they did not even talk about her in this book. I hthink they should have her being in heaven or something so that we can still get to hear about what happens to her. That would be sooooooooo cool. I can't belive that I've been hearing that number 48 is the last book...I seems like I was just on 27! I don't know where all the time went...the books are just so fun to read that you lose track of how many you have read! Wow! I'll probably cry on the last book like I did Laura died, and every time zoey wont talk to lucas. This is the best book! You should definatly pick it up at your nearest book store. I can't wait for number 48!

Great

This book is great. I would really recommend that you read it. Claire has had her share of disater ending romances, but this one could be everlasting. Clarie's still debating whether she likes Paolo or not, but in the end she decides he's right for her.

Will Claire ever find love?

The Chatam Island teens are off to college and and unfortunate turn of events brings them all scrambling back for home. Zoey and Ben have important choices to make concerning the future of their college careers, Claire is pursued by a charming,witty guy who she pushes away in spite of her recent break-up with Aaron, Lucas is desperatly helping to re-build Zoeys's house --and their relationship. Aisha, Nina, Ben and Jake all have many challenges ahead. Like the rest of this explosive series, Falling for Claire is engrossing and the characters are ever chasing their dreams. The emotions of every character come alive and have vibrant twists and turns that make the events seem life-like. Although,I too fear this series coming to an end.
