A Little Something Different

A Little Something Different by Sandy Hall, is told through fourteen different perspectives about the love story of Gabe and Lea. Everyone one around them seems to know they are perfect for each other, except for them. The only problem is that Gabe is painfully shy and Lea is a little bit closed minded. This often make them have opposite opinions and conflicting ideas. This is a story about the ins and outs of young love and how sometimes you just need a little nudge from a friend to come together.

Other important characters:

• Danny - Lea's all time best friend.
• Squirrel - A squirrel who they both feed on the school grounds.
• Sam - Gabe's brother.
• Bench - A lonely bench that brings Gabe and Lea together.
• Inga - Their creative writing teacher who makes separate lesson plans to force them to work together.

I would give this book 3 chickens because it had an interesting plot and characters, but the setting was undeveloped and there was not enough detail for me. This book is good for ages 11+

If you liked Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell, If I Stay by Gayle Forman or All the Answers by Kate Messner, then this book is for you.

If you like A Little Something Different, try Every Last Word by Tamara Stone or Love Like Crazy my Megan Squires (note these two are closer to 12 or 13+ for romance).
