Like, I got the point: she wasn’t sure she was in the right place–now what was she going to do about it? It’s interesting for the most part (especially if you like following campaign stories) but after a while it gets a little monotonous. Because the beginning was strong, as was the end, but somewhere in the middle it started to lose me. I truly think this book could have been 50 pages shorter and still got its message across. The plot mostly focuses on Kate throughout the campaign trail. It focuses more on the world of politics in the sense of how politicians present themselves to the public rather than particular agendas/policies. I didn’t find it preachy, pushy or biased in any respect. The Concept:ĭon’t be turned off of the fact that this book may present political views you might not agree with. So while I knew The Wrong Side of Right was going to focus more heavily on the realistic world of politics, I was hoping it would capture my heart like All American Girl would. Typical of all Meg Cabot’s work, it just had that great blend of teen romance and humour with a dash of realism, making it so much fun to read. Meg Cabot’s All American Girlis one of my favourite teen novels ever. The cover captured my attention, as did the positive reviews but it was the synopsis that made me want to read this book right away. I found this book one day when I was trolling the blogs I follow. Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary, Coming of Age, Politics, Realistic Fiction, Romance Set against a backdrop of politics, family, and first love, this is a story of personal responsibility, complicated romance, and trying to discover who you are even as everyone tells you who you should be. Does she turn to the family she barely knows, the boy she knows but doesn’t necessarily trust, or face a third, even scarier option? But who is Kate? When what she truly believes flies in the face of the campaign’s talking points, she must decide.
Suddenly, Kate’s moving in with a family she never knew she had, joining a campaign in support of a man she hardly knows, and falling for a rebellious boy who may not have the purest motives.
So when the unexpected shows up in her living room, Kate must confront another reality she never thought possible-or thought of at all. Kate Quinn’s mom died last year, leaving Kate parentless and reeling. Synopsis for The Wrong Side of Right (from Goodreads):įans of Sarah Dessen and Huntley Fitzpatrick will enjoy this smart debut young adult novel, equal parts My Life Next Door and The Princess Diaries-plus a dash of Aaron Sorkin.
Single Sundays: While this blog may be focused on reviewing book series as a whole, we can’t forget about the good ole’ standalone novel! On Sundays, I will review a novel that is considered to be a standalone novel.
