I don't know how to write review on this book. It's always harder to write about what you liked than about what you hated. I am afraid that I wouldn't be able to convince you that this book is worth reading. But My Life Next Door is worth every minute you will spend on it. I couldn't believe that it is a debut novel by Huntley Fitzpatrick. This book was so good. I can't think of anything I didn't like, anything to criticize. 
 The story is about Samantha - seventeen-years-old girl from rich single parent household. And it is about Garretts - middle class working family with EIGHT children. And though they live next door, Samantha and Garretts lives never intersect, until one day Jase Garrett decided it was time to finally get to know his neighbor. 
 The story was fun and edifying and light and deep at the same time. 
 I fell in love with big, loud and friendly Garrett family. Especially with four-year-old George with his never ending ridiculous questions and facts. Actually all characters in this book were so well written that they come alive from pages. 
 I loved the plot, the writing, that the problems for the heroes seemed realistic and their emotions felt real. 
 Huntley Fitzpatrick is clearly very talented writer. I will be waiting for her future works. 
 If I failed to convince you to try My Life Next Door, read some other reviews, maybe other readers can persuade you. Or you could just believe my word that is an amazing read. Try it!
