Since her parents’ bitter divorce, Mclean and her dad, a restaurant consultant, have been on the move – four towns in two years. Estranged from her mother and her mother’s brand-new family, Mclean has followed her dad in departing the unhappy previous behind. And each brand-new place gives her an opportunity to try out a fresh persona: from cheerleader to dilemma diva. But now, for the very first time, Mclean discovers a desire to stay in one place and you need to be herself – whoever that’s. Perhaps her neighbor Dave, an educational superstar wanting to be just a regular man, might help her find out. Combining Sarah Dessen’s trademark graceful composing, great characters, and compelling storytelling, What Happened to Goodbye is definitely irresistible reading.
