Review: Red Velvet by Sandra Byrd

About the book:

Friends For A Season Book 3- Thirteen-year-old Quinn finds herself spending a lot of time at the hospital lately--her mom is undergoing experimental treatment for cancer. When Quinn reads her mother's teen-years diary, she discovers a list of things her mom has wanted to do before she dies. Though reluctant to face the prospect of her mother's death, Quinn determines to see that her mom accomplishes everything on the list. She teams up with her new friend Annie, whose mom is undergoing the same cancer treatment, and the two decide to sew their mothers red velvet dresses for an upcoming Valentine's Day party.

My thoughts:

Red Velvet was a good read, although I found it quite sad at times. I liked the characters and thought it was written well. The lists in the book were fun and probably my favorite part. I did found a couple things silly, but overall enjoyed the story.

All in all, Red Velvet was an enjoyable read and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys clean YA stories.
