The two only become friends when Isabel meets one of Colie’s arch enemies, who calls her a slut and a bitch. Morgan is very tall and very welcoming of Colie, Isabel however is very rude and difficult towards Colie. Her main best friends are two girls who have graduated from high school, it is never made clear how old they are however. When she arrives in Colbie she is very hesitant to make friends, she always had been however when she starts work at The Last Chance burger joint she makes new friends. Colie was once overweight so was her mother, however her mother started aerobics and they both became very skinny, Colie evolving into a small case of anorexia.
This book is a very simple theme, friendship, a theme that evolves to be very complex. Each Sarah Dessen book has some sort of theme, some are simple and some can be more complex. This books narrates her summer that she spends her Aunt Mira in fictional Colby,a small beach town presumably in North Carolina. Keeping the Moon, also released as Last Chance is about fifteen year old Nicole Sparks or Colie. In 2003 the film how to deal with Mandy Moore was based off of Someone like you and That summer both written by Sarah Dessen. The book I chose Keeping the Moon was published September 1st, 1999 it was her third novel she now has ten books, one novella, and the current book she is writing. All her books focus on teenage girls and she usually will tie in different characters that have a small role in one book, but a large role in another.
She has written many books two of which I have already read. Sarah Dessen is #1 on the New York Times Bestselling Author, School Library Journal Best Book of the Year, 1998, A YALSA Best Book for Young Adults, 1999, New York Public Library Book for the Teenage, 2001, and Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist, 2003.
