Roomies book review7/2/2023 ![]() Sara Zarr and Tara Altebrando have captured the excitement and uncertainty of leaving home for the first time, and all the emotions that swirl around this important milestone in life. I started Roomies thinking it was going to be a light and funny story about two girls going off to college, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover it was much more than that. The path of least resistance is a path I know well, having trod it in circles around my mother for years. ![]() But it hardly seems worth the effort when college can do the breaking up for me. Because I don’t feel that way about him anymore, if I ever did. In a word: A sweet story about leaving home for the first time, filled with unexpected depth and emotion, with characters that make us remember how important friends and family truly are. ![]() Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers ![]()
