Top Ten Books for People Who Like Sarah Dessen


Top Ten Tuesday is a meme created by The Broke and the Bookish

This is another hard Top Ten for me.  So instead I’m choosing to portrait the best contemporary romances (no paranormal things involved) I’ve read as it is difficult for me to compare Sarah Dessen’s books to anything else :)

Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins


Love and Leftovers by Sarah Tregay

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green


Breathe by Abbi Glines

Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins

Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles

The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson

Leaving Paradise series by Simone Elkeles

What is in your Top Ten this week?

  1. Great list! I really like LOVE AND LEFTOVERS. It was a really really cute book. I also loved Leaving Paradise, even though I think when compared to Dessens' books Elkeles' books are a bit too steamy...

  2. Oh man - thanks for posting! So many of my students love Sarah Dessen but I'm just not a big fan so I struggle to come up with recommendations! This is perfect! Thanks!

  3. Nice list! I have about 3 Sarah Dessen books on my shelf that I actually haven't even read yet. All the books on this list are already on my to-read list though and I've heard good things about just a bout all of them :P

  4. I'm not a huge fan of contemporary YA books, but I've got quite a few you mentioned on my list of books to be read - like Statistical Probability. I'll have to check out the others too :-)

  5. We did the same theme for Top Ten Tuesday! We had two similar books, and I guess I'll have to check out the other ones that you listed! Here's my TTT: http://theliteraturelion.blogspot.com/2012/07/top-ten-tuesday-books-for-people-who.html

  7. Sarah Dessen was popular this week! I'm cOnvinced that Dessen and Han were separated at birth because their books are just filled so much of the same awesome! :) There are a few on your list I haven't read so I'm going to have to add them to my never ending To Read list!! Have a great week!

  8. This is a really good list. It's sad but I've only read 3 books ffrom this list. Perfect Chemistry (OMG I LOVE this book!) and both Stephanie Perkins books. (so good too!)
    I really want to read Breathe by Abbi Glines, I love the new cover. I've never read a Sarah Dessen book either, which one is your favorite of hers?
