The time will come for me to read....

How To Say Goodbye In Robot by Natalie Standiford

New to town, Bea is expecting her new best friend to be one of the girls she meets on the first day. But instead, the alphabet conspires to seat her next to Jonah, aka Ghost Boy, a quiet loner who hasn't made a new friend since third grade. Something about him, though, gets to Bea, and soon they form an unexpected friendship. It's not romance, exactly - but it's definitely love. Still, Bea can't quite dispel Jonah's gloom and doom - and as she finds out his family history, she understands why. Can Bea help Jonah? Or is he destined to vanish?
I already read one of her books (Confessions Of The Sullivan Sisters) and really liked. This one has excellent reviews, but they sad it's heartbreaking. I admit that is the reason why I haven't read it yet, I wanted to read something happy... But, I'm really curious about this book, and as I said, I like the author so I'm sure I'll read it.

  2. Ha, we're so different. The fact that people say it is heartbreaking would have me wanting to read it sooner rather than later :P
