bargainandbooks 's review for:
The Mall
by Megan McCafferty
Thank you to Netgalley and Wednesday Books for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I asked for this one based entirely on that hot neon cover and it didn’t disappoint.

What a FUN read. After all of the heavy books I’ve been reading this was such a great palette cleanser. Cassie Worthy has her whole life planned out. Perfect boyfriend, perfect grades, perfect parents, perfect life. In a few months she’s leaving for College in NYC to begin her perfect adult life. Until A Mono diagnosis changes everything.
-
While I was not a Teenager in the late 80’s-early 90’s the level of nostalgic pop culture references still just make me so happy. VHS, Cassettes, Cabbage Patch Kids, Scrunchies, Arcades, Etc... It captured mall culture perfectly.

I LOVED the songs littered throughout the book. An easy playlist to accompany the book. I also think this could easily be made into a GREAT retro style movie, I can already hear the cheesy music.
