Dreamland!

I am reading the book Dreamland By Sarah Dessen, and it is a very good book! The book is about a girl named Caitlin. Caitlin has always been second best compared to her sister Cass. Then, Cass runs away and decides not to go to college, but to be with a boy she met over the summer. Caitlin's parents are very upset, and Caitlin misses her sister. Caitlin's Best friend Rina convinces her to try out for the cheerleading team. They both make the team, but Caitlin realizes she hates it. Then she meets Rogerson. And at first.... things are perfect! But later on, things turn terrible. Caitlin has a secret. She can't tell anyone! Not even her new friend Corinna who's wish is to leave everything and live in California. Caitlin can't do anything about this. She has to lie to everyone in her life. But the worst part is, she is still in love with Rogerson, even though she knows she shouldn't. 
I have read a lot of books by this author, (Sarah Dessen) and Dreamland is definitely one of my favorites! It is a great book. I would recommend this book to other people, but if someone hates sad stories, they should probably stay away from this book! It is a real tear-jerker at times.
