where i belong book by gwendolyn heasley

But I guess it is normal, even okay, for some people so it isn't exactly unrealistic. There are also pop references like Paris Hilton, Gossip Girls, Lindsay Lohan, and Lady Gaga which will be lost on future readers of the book.Īlso, there are a couple of times were Corrine mentions about having been or gets drunk and apparently there is nothing wrong with this, its normal. Other than Paris Hilton I don't know anyone who gets in the tabloids for having rich (not famous just rich) parents. I am not sure about this because I don't live in New York but it sounds kind of dumb for Corrine to worry about what she wears because the paparazzi might see her.

I was hoping it would be funnier but it was mostly just annoying.

Yes, I expected her to be a snob about going to Texas and that she would miss her old life in New York but Corrinne is such a stereotyped spoiled brat who did whatever she wanted. This was kind of what I expected it to be but more annoying at the beginning than I thought. This just goes to show that I probably can't stomach a book like Before I Fall if I was kind of disappointed about a book like this which I'm pretty sure is a lighter read. Great debut and I look forward to seeing what Heasley comes up with next. It's a good book to open your eyes wide about how the greater gifts life has to offer, hard times don't last forever, money isn't everything and discovering there really is two sides to a coin. I have to admit I was slightly disappointed by the lack of romance, given the cover, I was kinda expecting it, but when I think about it, romance really isn't the point to this storyline and didn't really need it to get the message across. I really did liked Buddy though, he was quite the charmer and I liked the way he just tells it like it is. Still, it was pretty neat to see her transformation and I grew to like her eventually. Where I Belong was a decent read but it took forevah for me to like Corrinne, to be fair she was meant to be written all selfish and materialistic and everything I can't stand in a character, so Gwendolyn Heasley did her job well. It's probably the best thing that could have ever happend to her. Shallow, snobby and rich little princess Corrinne gets a taste of what life is really about when the recessions rains on her perfectly plastic lifestyle when her father gets laid off, sending miss-thing to the hard bruel truth of the real world.
