Review:

806 by Cynthia Weil is a predictable book but surprisingly very satisfying read. One of the reasons is, the book is a very quick read and does not tease or test you at any moment.

806 is about a teen Katie who is `struggling with her image, her relationship with her mother who she loves and wants to find out about her biological father. She begins her search only to find she has two more siblings, with whom she then begins a journey to on the road to look for him.

The book follows through very simple lives and road trips of the three siblings, Katie, who prefers to be called as KT, Jesses who wants to be known as more than a jock and Gabe who wishes his future will set him free from his allergies.

By the end of the book everything ties up beautifully, all three siblings evolve as well as their relationship with their family changes for the better. The least involved character I saw was Gade, even Dylan who I loved the most, by the way, has more presence than him. Dylan is the friend who loves KT but she pushes him away and he follows her through the journey just to be with her. (It could have come off and creepy but Cynthia, makes it look like the cutest thing ever)

The story is about having a family within friends and to trust what happens, happens for the best.

At times the dialogues did feel shallow and the story did seem to stay in one place for too long without twists and turns but that's what the book is, it is a light read about life that can be hard and easy at the same time.

I would recommend this book if you like to read something fun and sweet. It will stay with you but not disturb you.

Everytime I read Dylan all I could think about was Haley and Dylan form Modern Family


Disclaimer: I was provided with a ARC of this book so I could give an honest review.
