Going Vintage had a premise that I thought would be fun to read, and I was certainly right. Could I really do without my cell phone, no internet? I would like to say that I could, but who am I fooling? All though, there are days I would love the kick my internet. Anyway, this is exactly what Mallory does.
Mallory is just a 16 year young girl. Goes to school, she’s pretty, seems to have a strong personality, has a boyfriend. And that is where the trouble begins. Her boyfriend, Jeremy and her have had a horrible break up, and now it is all over the internet and in texts. Mallory is a typical teenager, she makes some choices that aren’t great ones, which we all have probably done growing up. She was pretty easy to relate to.
She came from a good family, she lived with both parents, and had one feisty sister. The secondary characters were great. One particular, was a new budding romance. Oliver, who happens to be Jeremy’s (the Ex) cousin. He was really adorable, I mean, how could not like him.
This has a cute and fun story. It was about giving up all the technologies, learning who you really are and growing up. While going her Grandmother belongings, she found a list of things she had wanted to do. Mallory was one determined to girl to follow list and watching her go through all of this was enjoyable and fun. She learned a lot about herself and about those around her too. Sure there is heart break along the way, but that is part of growing up too. And Mallory did a lot of growing up and I have to give her that. Deciding to give up all of her gadgets and go back to a time before all of these things we think we need, was probably the best things she did.
Going Vintage was a light and refreshing read with relatable characters, humor, and a sweet romance. I have to say that I really did enjoy this one and would certainly say pick this one up.
