True Blue is a story about a group of friends set in 1972. The main characters in this book are Jenna Russell, Wade Strickland and Billy Joe DuBose. It describes what it’s like when they are together and when they aren’t together. Sometimes it shows us how life was difficult back in 1972. Along the way, some characters start having feelings for each other that cause many problems within their friend group. The conflicts continue to escalate throughout the book. Will they remain friends, or will this mighty trio be affected because of all the problems?

 

Opinion: 

True Blue was good book because it showed what life was like back in 1972. There were two things I really liked about it. The first thing I liked about the book was how descriptive the author was with how the characters looked and felt. When the characters talked to their siblings, I had a hard time at first figuring out which sibling belonged to which character. This book is perfect for teens who like to read about friendship and other realistic elements.
