Same Difference by Siobhan Vivian


Feeling left out since her long-time best friend started a serious relationship, sixteen-year-old Emily looks forward to a summer program at the Philadelphia College of Art but is not sure she is up to the challenges to be faced there, including finding herself and learning to balance life and art.


*Cue sappy love music.*

Siobhan Vivian is one of my favorite writers and I’ve never been disappointed by anything she’s written. Same Difference was a lyrical book that I absolutely adored. Out of all three of her books (the other two are A Little Friendly Advice and Not That Kind of Girl), this one is my favorite. I loved the art component in this novel. I’ve always dreamed of being one of those super-talented-artsy-people. So in a way, this book has let me live out my dream. Yay!
I couldn’t stop reading this book. I brought it with me everywhere- hockey games, roadtrips, the dinner table-everywhere. This is one of those books that is a permanent fixture in my mind.
Siobhan Vivian is an amazing author that everyone should read.

I've never read anything from this author, and I've never even heard of this book, but it sounds great! It's so fun when the author takes you on a journey with the characters. Brilliant review :)

I think Same Difference is a wonderfully unique story of finding yourself as an artist and as a person. I would highly recommend it to anyone that is interested in the arts or self discovery in general.
