I won a few in some giveaways so I&#8217;m reading this one and <i>Me, Just Different<\/i>.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Plot: <\/span>The plot was interesting. It was a mix of teen drama and a teen author&#8217;s desire to be published. I personally cared more of the publishing part since I was a teen in her shoes at one point. The story wasn&#8217;t terribly exciting, but it did hold my interest. I liked the latter half of the book the most when Gabrielle goes to the writer&#8217;s conference. That brought up some nostalgic memories for me. I also liked the climax. I was genuinely angry at her jerk friends. I liked how there were lots of points of tension going on. It wasn&#8217;t boring. Though there are a lot of time transitions, Stephanie keeps the story very smooth.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Characters: <\/span>The character I related to the most was Gabrielle. I&#8217;ve been in her shoes as a teen writer and feeling rejected by her friends and not very pretty and would rather stay home and write than party. I could relate to her in a lot of ways so I mostly read this book for her. I also find it funny that we&#8217;re the same height. I like how Stephanie wrote her thought process.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\">One of my favorite lines of hers was:&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">That\u2019s one reason I like writing so much better than speaking, the ability to edit.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\">I didn&#8217;t care for either of the love interests frankly. Palmer was a typical pretty boy and I didn&#8217;t like how Chase pretended to his parents that Gabrielle was his girl friend. That was really uncool. I&#8217;ve had that happen in real life and it&#8217;s a pretty jerk move. Chase is the best out of the two, but neither of them made me go, &#8220;Oh my goodness I love him. I want to date him.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\">I was a bit iffy about Gabrielle&#8217;s family at first but they steadily grew on me. I really like how supportive Gabrielle&#8217;s parents are to her writing career later on. I wish my parents were that cool about it. XD Her grandparents remind me a bit of mine. They were so stiff yet a bit comical.

It wasn&#8217;t anything completely stunning, but it was interesting.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif; font-size: large;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Epic Things: <\/span>I really liked that there is an Anne of Green Gables play.

She did this quite masterfully. The story had multiple themes from encouragement for being a writer to self image. These lines stuck out in particular to me:<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">Dad\u2019s voice is thick with emotion. \u201cIt\u2019s not dependent on if you win tomorrow or if your book gets published or anything the world tells you.

I&#8217;d say PG. Some partying is mentioned and a character gets slam drunk. A few characters imbibe. Ellie lies a lot, but that&#8217;s eventually deemed as a character flaw.

The Time Transitions Worked &#8211;<\/b> Stephanie includes a lot of time jumps in her story as it takes place over a few months. She used many smooth transitions to skirt this amount of time while still keeping you on track of the story. None of the time jumps were abrupt and left you confused as to what was going on like I&#8217;ve encountered in other novels.<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: white; font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; line-height: 20px;\"><b style=\"line-height: 18.2px; text-align: center;\">How this can be applied to writing: <\/b><span style=\"line-height: 18.2px; text-align: center;\">Be careful about how you pull off your time transitions when writing a story. With each transition, make sure it&#8217;s clear that you just skipped x amount of time. You can do this in interior monologue or mention the exact amount of time that has passed.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20px;\"><span style=\"line-height: normal;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20px;\"><span style=\"line-height: normal;\"><b>2.) The Story Went into Teen Wrongdoings without Going Overboard and it Worked &#8211; <\/b>Teens tend to get into a lot of things in YA. Often this strays into the explicit content that puts me off most contemporaries whether it be sex or drinking or smoking or swearing. All of these things are mentioned in this novel, but they&#8217;re handled in a way that pictures reality without being saturated in mature content.<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20px;\"><span style=\"line-height: normal;\"><br \/><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20px;\"><b style=\"line-height: 18.2px; text-align: center;\">How this can be applied to writing: <\/b><span style=\"line-height: 18.2px; text-align: center;\">To make a story realistic, you don&#8217;t have to go into every solitary gory detail and amp up the book&#8217;s rating. You can imply events that happened or describe them in a more audience-friendly way.

The Love Interests Didn&#8217;t Work &#8211; <\/b>Unfortunately, neither of the love interests seemed appealing.

She enjoys encouraging and teaching teen writers on her blog.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\">You can find her on her website,&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Stephanie-Morrill\/96655061611\" style=\"background-color: white; color: #bf9000; line-height: 20.79px; text-decoration: none;\">Facebook<\/a><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\">,&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/stephmorrill\" style=\"background-color: white; color: #bf9000; line-height: 20.79px; text-decoration: none;\">Twitter<\/a><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\">,<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/stephaniewrites\/\" style=\"background-color: white; color: #bf9000; line-height: 20.79px; text-decoration: none;\">Pinterest<\/a><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\">&nbsp;and&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/author\/show\/2769171.Stephanie_Morrill\" style=\"background-color: white; color: #bf9000; line-height: 20.79px; text-decoration: none;\">Goodreads<\/a><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;times new roman&quot; , &quot;times&quot; , &quot;freeserif&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\"><b>Other Reviews of I&#8217;ve done of Stephanie Morrill&#8217;s Books:<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20.790000915527344px;\"><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/victoriagracehowell.com\/staging\/6258\/2013\/05\/a-book-review-of-go-teen-writers-how-to.html\">A Book Review of Go Teen Writers: How to Turn Your First Draft Into A Published Novel<\/a><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"background-color: white; font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; line-height: 20.79px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/victoriagracehowell.com\/staging\/6258\/2016\/02\/a-book-review-of-me-just-different-by.html\">A Book Review of Me, Just Different by Stephanie Morrill<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: white; line-height: 20px;\">\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Buy from Amazon!
