SAVOUR THIS BOOK!!! possible spoilers:Warning

One word: wow. When I first heard of this series I was not expecting anything like this. I finished it in one hour. I couldn't put it down. When I was finished, I was so sad that there wasn't going to be another one in the series. It made me sp irritated at times where Sam did that repulsive thing to Ellie and how Charlotte was so disgusting and rude. I found it rather dramatic and romantic with how all the hidden loves that were in the family and how Ellie realizes that her family isn't so picture perfect after all. She learns that her mother and her next door neighbor had been in love since they were kids and they had an affain before Ellie was born. Then Mr. Ranson gets Mrs. Wells pregnant with Ellie and she learns that her father is actually Mr. Ransom. I thought it was so cute with the two grandparents finally being together after so many years of being seperated by their parents. I rather liked Sam but in this book, my liking for him was put out quite a bit. I just couldn't think of anyone doing such a thing to the one that they love. Ellie just asked for one thing and then he took it completely out of proportion and didn't even say he was sorry afterwards. He just continued to torture her and then she takes him back because he gets his arm hurt in a storm. I found it rather sad that Mrs. Wells and Mr. Ransom had to be seperated once again. I just think its sad because they loved each other so much and would forever, I think. But Mrs. Wells did put him back in line after she felt like he was putting her second place to his writing. I wish that the author would write more books to the series. It's so good and just sucks you in. You can't help but want more after your finished. Buy the book. I highly recommend it.

Extremely good book for teenage romancers.

This Book will make you laugh and cry. Its full of wonderful love stories that make you wish you had you own Silver Beach to escape to. The carachters are so familiar to teens, that you feel very close to them. Its a combination of stories almost all teen girls can relate to. First love, Break ups, heartaches, and more. A wonderful book to complete the exquizid series. You'll be sorry thier stories are over.
