About this ebook
Seventeen-year-old Raven Walker has never had a boyfriend. She’s never really been interested in boys. But she was always too afraid to examine what that might mean. Until she meets Morgan O’Shea and finds herself inexplicably drawn to her.
As their friendship develops, Raven is forced to face the possibility that her interest in Morgan might actually be attraction and that she might be gay.
Acknowledging the possibility opens Raven’s world to the excitement of her first romance, but it also leaves her struggling to come to terms with her sexuality and the impact it will have on her relationships with her family and friends.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I enjoyed Everything Changes, it was a quick pleasant read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really loved Everything Changes a coming of age story when 17 year old Raven finally realizes she is gay. When Morgan comes along feelings Raven has never felt before explode inside her something she had never had with a guy. Morgan is in college and has been out as a lesbian for awhile. Morgen has had relationships before and really likes Raven but does not want to take a step backwards in her life having to hide a relationship. Is Raven too afraid to come out about being a lesbian all these feelings are so new. As all young gay people go through Raven is terrified how her friends, kids at school and family will handle this. This YA novel is an adoring read for people of all ages. It takes you back to your first crush and it also shows how hard it is for young gay people making sense of their feelings and life. There is so much to this book. You will really enjoy this read.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5While Gravity and Dare Truth or Promise got 3 1/2 stars, I'm giving Everything Changes 4 stars, mainly because I found the ending a little more realistic. Raven knew something was 'wrong' because she wasn't attracted to boys like her best friends Summer and Chloe. Nor was she overly attracted to girls...that is until she meet Morgan. Sitting side by side on a couch, tingles shot up Raven's arm whenever their arms accidently brushed against each other. It was nothing like she ever felt before. It was at that point she knew she craved the touch of Morgan just like Summer and Chloe craved the touch of boys.The problems are (1) how to get comfortable herself with this revelations and (2) how to break this news to family and friends. That's the crux of Everything Changes and the subject is handled very well. In this 'enlightened' day and age, not everyone is immediately accepting of homosexuality, including the person herself. It may take time.Everything Changes is a fast and satisfying read.
