Don't Kiss Him GoodBye London Confidential Sandra Byrd 9781414325996 Books Reviews

This one is a little outside of my box. All right, a lot outside of my box. I don't recall ever reading juvenile fiction even when I was a juvenile. But as a mom of an almost thirteen year old, I'm constantly on the hunt for good, pure fiction, and Sandra Byrd does not disappoint.

I began reading the book with the idea that it would be easy to set aside while I switched laundry over or any of that other household stuff that tends to take precedence in my life. Boy, was I wrong. I couldn't put the book down. Don't Kiss Him Good-bye is that engaging.

Savvy is a typical teenager with Christian values at her core. The only difference, she's been uprooted from her American culture and replanted in the United Kingdom. Secretly, she runs an advice column for her school newspaper. Savvy seeks the scriptures for answers to other people's problems. When her own relationship dilmmas occurr with her peers she must decide whether or not to take her own advice.

There are so many positives in this book. Savvy is not only a gifted writer, she also has a gift with music and although she is nervous she is not afraid to use it to glorify God.

I'm very impressed with Byrd's ability to add an awesome message for young girls in a way that is not off putting to them. As a mom of four children the following excerpt (from Savvy's mom) is my favorite part.

"This has to be your decision Savvy," she said. "But I want you to think hard about it. When you go out with someone, dress up, or even just become friends with him, you are giving away a precious piece of yourself. Make sure that each person you give a piece of Savvy to deserves it."

It does not matter if you're from a Christian home or not, that bit is sound advice for children and adults alike!

Although Don't Kiss Him Good-bye is the third book in Byrd's London Confidential series following Savvy's life, I did not feel as if I missed a beat. But, I can promise you I will be on the hunt for the previous books and I very much look forward to future books.
Maybe it's because I'm pass that age and don't have to worry about the drama anymore but I love reading books about teen love. It seems so magical and nostalgic now although I know back them I suffered severe emotional dysfunction. Anywho, this book showcases that very topic in a fun way. Savvy is dealing with two guys that she likes, one is a good friend while the other is the bad boy type. I enjoyed her interactions with both Tommy and Rhys as I found both their characters to be interesting and non cliched. These books take place in Britain so I love how the culture just seeps through the book.

I love Byrd's writing and I found that I could not put the book down. The chapters are quite short so it's hard to find a stopping place because you want to just keep going to find out what happens. Savvy's role as a secret reporter for her school paper takes high precedence again in this book. There's not as many of the Asking for Trouble selections as there were in the previous books but I still enjoyed reading the ones that were spotlighted. I always love reading advice columns in newspapers and magazines because you never know when someone will ask the very question you have been wondering about yourself.

While Savvy is a Christian and goes to church, I didn't find the religious aspect of the book to be too intrusive. Her faith is important to her but it's not so overwhelming that it takes up the entire book. Savvy acts like a typical teenager (albeit an American teen living in London) and it's fun to watch her experience things realistically. Taylor Swift gets several mentions in the book and I love it because Savvy would totally be the obvious fan of her due to her age and her love of music. I also really loved her finding the Be@titude store. It sounds like somewhere I would love to shop myself and I love how they help out others as well.

I would recommend this book for the 13-15 age group. It's intended for an older audience than middle grade books but not as serious or mature as most YA books. Either way, I think that anyone who's a fan of YA books and British things will enjoy this book. As I've said before with the other books in this series, these books totally make me want to go to England and experience everything Savvy has been able to do.
Good book! Love Sandra Byrd!! I can't put the book down. At the end I'm glad Savvy dances with Tommy.
Full of drama and so much fun to read. Really interesting as well. I was in love after the 1st book
Amazing recommend it for ages 8and up awesome series so far can't wait to hear what the next book will be about!!!!
