I got the opportunity to read Ciao by Bethany Lopez. I am very glad that I got to, because it was a great story. This book was the third story in a series called Stories About Melissa. The first two stories are called Ta Ta For Now! and xoxoxo.)
Ciao is about Melissa’s sophomore year in high school. Two friends that Melissa made during the summber, Cassie and Giovanni, join Melissa’s group. Melissa is dealing with having feelings for two different boys. I don’t want to give away other major details of the story, but there is something that happens that puts Melissa and her friend’s strength to the test – and you definitely don’t want to miss it!
This is a wonderful book that deals with issues that teenagers deal with every day – love, jealous, pain, friendships, and family. I love the way the story is told as diary entries made by Melissa. Diaries have always been one of my favorite ways to tell a story, and it’s the same way here.
Ciao by Bethany Lopez is a great, quick read that is great for right before bed when you’re winding down. I definitely recommend that you read it, along with Ta Ta For Now! and xoxoxo. You can purchase Ciao at Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
