After a scandal involving her mother and a famous college basketball coach rocked
her family and her old hometown, McClean decided to live with her dad. His job as
a restaurant consultant requires they pick up often, and at each new place she
carefully selects who she.ll be.Eliza, Beth, or someone else with a new name and
different interests. It.s easier this way for McClean, who is reluctant to form any
true attachments. Then at their latest stop, McClean does something she.s not done
in a long while.reveal her real name. But who is this McClean and is she ready to
forgive her mother, fall for the boy next door, and finally stick around?
Fans of author Sarah Dessen will recognize her compelling dialog and characters so
intricately-drawn it.s as if they.re the reader.s friends, too. Yet the real meat
of What Happened to Goodbye is in Dessen.s mastery of the emotional ups-and-downs
of McClean.s supportive relationship with her father and struggles with her mother.
Keenly-observed and terrifically-written, Dessen.s latest is a delightful read about
self-discovery and maturity that by the end is hard to say goodbye to.
