Connections will be made and friendships will be tested. Will Melissa’s family and friends be able to help her through the challenges she will face in the upcoming months?
Review:
Ciao is the third installment in the
Stories About Melissa series, and this book is just as fun and fluffy as the
others! Melissa still has a flair for the overdramatic, and I thoroughly
enjoyed reading about her daily life and boy problems.
My
favorite aspect about this book was how Lopez managed to blend together some
funny moments with some serious ones. As Melissa grows older, her voice also
holds a greater level of maturity, and Ciao
introduces more somber moments of life, from heartache to how it feels to
lose someone close to you. Through these hard times, it is easier for the
reader to really get to know Melissa, and I felt like I had a much better
appreciation for who she is and how she thinks.
Melissa’s
story does not end with Ciao, though!
The fourth book in the series, TTYL, is due out sometime in early 2013, and I
cannot wait to read more about Melissa’s adventures. Maybe some boy drama will
finally be resolved?? :)
