What Happened To Goodbye

McLean Sweet doesn’t mind. In fact, she welcomes the chance to try on a new persona. Ever since her parents’ divorce, she and her father have been on the move, leaving the unhappy past behind them. Each move had brought a fresh opportunity for McLean to reinvent herself. Perky rah-rah girl. Drama mama. All-round joiner. But here in Lakeview, for the first time she’s putting down roots, making friends, and just tryng to be some she hasn’t been in a long time: herself. Dave has something to do with it. He’s the most real person McLean’s ever met and he thinks he’s falling in love with the REAL McLean. McLean doesn’t even know who that I anymore, but she want to find out—before it’s time to move on again.

I can feel this character. She did a split personality whenever she moves in in new towns. McLean with her dad, the fourth town, they went to was Lakeview and that’s where McLean became real. She didn’t used other names to cover her true personality. McLean has her own reasons for doing it before but because when she met Dave, the most real person she met, not all embarrassed of his past..changed her bit by bit.

Having a divorced parents is really hard…it’s true. But you do not have to change anything about you just to cover up your terrible past. No one’s perfect in this world. That’s what Dave Wade showed McLean too. Nobody’s perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. Even the most genius, prodigy guy you’ll know. He’ll make mistake. There is nothing to cover it for. Don’t ever change your beautiful self. Just be you.

That’s what all I can say about the book. Mostly.

Some SPOILER included - P.S. This is about the #1 interesting titbit I shared, 2 AM. Ok…so, I think I do know about it now. Dave Wade was really just denying the whole real meaning of it in the book, when it is truly, BEYOND friendship. McLean found her 2 AM in the book. It was crazy to me because I STILL CAN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS WHOLE 2 AM THING. Blame Dave Wade for this. So much for being prodigy, advanced physicist. HAHAHAHA!
I’ll stop here and wishes you all HAPPY READING!

Tidbits on my current reading so far: What Happened To Goodbye

I’m not really going to my-so-basic review of this book yet, because I am halfway through the book, currently reading it and started only today. I just wanna share some things that got me stop reading for a while. I found interesting things to share for you about this book from Sarah Dessen!

When I got to the point of where Dave Wade (character in the book), mentions about “your 2 AM”, I just couldn’t help but think about the meaning of it! Clearly here’s my tweet:

and unexpectedly someone replied to my random tweet haha! It was a really cool reply btw! I just love her! She’s really sweet auntie to me!

I read her reply tweet to me and I can’t stop laughing out loud sitting on the sofa! I replied to her, saying, true. Idk though if she meant the friendship one or BEYOND friendship. But I guess, she’s referring to “BEYOND relationship”.

In the book though, Dave explains to McLean that “2 AM” means… something like friendship, who always be there for you whenever you need them even when it’s late at night and you call ‘em, they are always there for you. But you know I don’t think that’s what he really meant on the book…it’s pretty clear to me that it’s more than that.

(maybe) Last INTERESTING TIDBIT

This tweet I saw a while ago was so close to the story of the book and it makes me sad because I absolutely think that it’s true.

P.S. This is all for now…I can’t really get out all the feelings from the first interesting tidbit. I’m having a hard time explaining my feelings. Yeah…it’s true, i don’t have my own real 2 AM. Trust me..it’s not about boys I’m referring to..I’m actually talking about best friends. Oh well, you’ll never understand me. Thanks all for you concern, really.

NOT TO FORGET —–> Happy #3rdDavidArchuletaAnniversary debut album! @DavidArchie

CRUSH – Single

If you want more music…go check David Archuleta today!

If you want some 2 AM song related from the tidbit topic I shared, well I got some, from Taylor Swift! Not really THAT related but at least, the lyrics from her songs has 2 AM in them. I listened to her songs and actually heard lots of 2 AM and it puzzled me, saying, “does it actually have meaning?” Probably, I was lucky to have the answer given by Dave Wade, eh? LOL.

That’s The Way I Loved You
But I’ve been screamin’ and fightin’
And kissin’ in the rain
And it’s

2 a.m.

and I’m cursin’ your name
You’re so in love that you act insane
And that’s the way I loved you
Breathe

It’s 2 a.m., feelin’ like I just lost a friend
Hope you know this ain’t easy, easy for me
Enchanted

The lingering question kept me up, 2 a.m., who do you love?
I wonder ’til I’m wide awake

Keep checking for the next blog! Ciao!
