The Unwritten Rule by Elizabeth Scott
5.0
Elizabeth Scott still floors me with her writing! In fact, it has been so long since I read her other books that this book made me want to read them all over again.
This book is adorable, it is true, it is just brilliant on so many levels! Sarah is a main character that everyone will be able to identify with on some level. We follow her in a friendship that is so real, you will find yourself thinking about your "friend" you had like Brianna. A toxic friendship, but one also deeply filled with need. Reading Sarah's inner thoughts and guilt was always intriguing, but never overwhelming. I found myself adoring her more as she grew as a person.
The love in this story, both between friends and between couples, is also so true to life. Brianna's struggle with her divorced and uncaring parents, again so true. Elizabeth Scott takes all the things that her readers might have faced as young adults and addresses them in a way that only she can.
My ultimate take on this book is simply that it is true and touching. I truly believe that every young girl should read this book at some point. It might prompt them to do a little soul searching as well.
