Who We Were Kindle Edition

by Christy Sloat (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars (53)
Summer school meant I could wipe the slate clean. I could become Sadie Peters, popular and outgoing, instead of the shy nobody only my best friend loved. My intentions were pure.

I thought I could handle the transition to Alcott High, become someone else, all while keeping my integrity intact.

But I was wrong.

Those four weeks taught me things about people I never knew possible. I lost my best friend to a dangerous situation, and it was all my fault. All because I wanted to become someone I wasn’t.

Maybe who I was wasn’t so horrible after all.

Great read!
A quick, fun read! The nostalgia really makes the words come off the page and into life. This was my first time reading a book from an author I’m lucky to work with and call a friend. Christy’s light and fun personality runs throughout this. The plot and verbiage took me right back to my own high school days. Highly recommend!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Contemporary Romance from Christy Sloat
    Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2014

    I have had the pleasure of following Christy Sloat’s writing career and it astonishes me how much she has grown as writer. Who We Were speaks volumes to that statement.

    Who We Were is a story that everyone can relate to no matter if you are 15 or 45. It is so easy to put yourself into Sadie Peter’s shoes and immerse yourself in her life. High School is tough. Your world is changing. You are growing up and expanding your horizon. Sometimes this journey leads you to new people and experiences as you out grow and leave behind others. Sadie is learning this first hand during the summer before her senior year. As Sadie attends summer school to lighten her class load for next year, she decides to meet new people and reinvent how she and others see herself. Of course this doesn’t happen without creating ripples in her existing pool of relationships. That summer turns out to be a life altering experience for Sadie and those around her.

    Who among us hasn’t been through a similar situation? This story takes a realistic view at growing up, growing apart, and growing into the person you were meant to be. This book has staying power. It will never go out of style. Who We Were deals with such a relevant topic; you will be able to recommend it for generations.

    With Who We Were, Christy Sloat has shown the publishing world that she has what it takes to be a writer and contender in multiple genres. Christy has grown as a writer and it clearly shows in her latest work. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for this writer.

    This book was a sweat, romantic, horrifying, sad, and down right incredible story, but that is how real life is, especially for teenage girls. This story had all the feelers in it and is a tissue box worthy read. The characters were phenomenal and easy to connected with. The story-line fits right in with the life and times of a teenage girl with all her ups and downs and heartaches with a few added extras to it, but it seemed to make the character stronger in the end. I really enjoyed this story and I highly recommend it!

    This is an amazing book. Sadie is so strong even though she is very shy and keeps to herself. She goes to summer school at a different school and he whole world changes. She meets new people some good like Nolan and some not so good like Oliver. I love the romantic parts of this story. It also shows that u should be urself at all times. I wish I could find myself a Nolan.

    What a great read! This book not only took me back but also brought me forward to kids these days and the struggles they endure in life as the world keeps changing. I loved the characters and already feel like i miss them. It definitely left me wanting to know more and now the older phases of their life turns out. This is especially a good read if you have teenagers! I also recommend they read it... Definitely a few lessons across these pages & a lot of love :) You are a great writer Christy Sloat! Congratulations!

    Who We Were is a story chronicling the evolution of Sadie Peters. She had always been a quiet girl, who watched from the outside with her best friend, Lilly. She viewed, but did not participate in life, because of her overprotective mother. The summer she attended summer school at Alcott High , would be the beginning of big changes in her life.
    Who We Were is not just about Sadie, but about Sadie and Lily, Sadie and her mom, Sadie and Nolan, Sadie. Their relationships changed, grew and evolved as Sadie found herself and who she wanted to be. I enjoyed watching Sadie take charge and not lose herself in the process. She stayed true to herself, while still growing and changing. She understood that you need to lend unconditional support to those you love, when and how they need it, you need to forgive those you care for, if you want them to remain part of your life, you need to take chances and do things that scare you if you want to gain anything worth having.
    On a side note, I loved Nolan. He was probably one of my favorite characters in the book. He was honest and fair and caring and resilient and totally swoon worthy, which every good book requires.

    Ah, to be that young again. This was a great story with wonderful characters. The last year of high school is a time of so much change and upheaval and Christy Sloat captured the essence of what it is like perfectly. Some of Nolan's storyline ripped my heart out. For me it was one of my best friends and her story didn't have a happy ending. I very much enjoyed this book. It was sweet and beautiful. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

    I loved this book! It has been a long time since I read an entire book in one sitting. I loved the writing of the story; it was the right mindset of a 17 year old girl attending summer school. The characters were believable. I knew someone who reminded me of Nash and of Lily. I am secretly hoping that Christy will write a companion novel from the POV of Lily. I'd like to see what she has been keeping from her childhood friend Sadie and for how long.
