When Gabby earns a C-average on her report card, her parents' response is swift and harsh. Gabby is forbidden to use her phone, required to start an after-school job at the Grocery Mart warehouse and, worst, forced to quit the basketball team. Angry and powerless, Gabby lashes out at those closest to her. That Gabby's fighting, drinking and unkind comments are disproportionate to the situation and alarming to those who care about her is made apparent to readers through subtle detail and the words of well-drawn characters. Gabby's relationships with friends and family are similarly complex. Camaraderie develops among Gabby and her new friends from work, but readers can observe ways the older co-workers treat Gabby poorly: sending her home from a party with a drunk driver; flirting with her but, confusingly, hooking up with other girls. Most poignant is Gabby's relationship with her favorite uncle, Mike, who only she knows is gay, and the way Gabby's mental stability unravels when her family rejects Mike is both believable and heartbreaking.

The  book "The Secret Year" is written by Jennifer Hubbard.For the past year, Colt and Julia have been secretly “together”. Total opposites and part of different groups at school, Julia also has a boyfriend at the same time. Before the next school year begins, Julia is killed in a car accident and Colt is given a journal marked with his initials from her brother. What will he discover in these pages about Julia, her feelings, and, perhaps, his own?

The story took place mostly everywhere.

This book was good, it had situations that many people want while at the same time they think they want but really don't. When you begin this book Colt had been dating a girl named Julia for a year and she had just died, then it goes on to explain how he felt about her, what she felt about him, tons of other things, mainly about his trying to sort out not only his feelings he still had for this dead girl but feelings for others around him, especially when her younger brother gives him her journal.This book was really good I actually read it twice.
