Melody Carlson is known for her "TrueColors" series, which shows teens and how they handle problems differently, and then welcome God into their lives. It’s a very fresh series, and even if you’re not religious, you will probably like these books. Though, Burnt Orange: Color Me Wasted, isn’t the first book in the series, it’s my personal favorite.
Amber Conrad is the daughter of a preacher, who soon befriends popular girl, Claire. Things begin to become out of control when Claire gets Amber into the party scene, i.e: drinking. Amber’s best friend, Simi, begins to see the change in her friend and worries about her, and tries reaching out to her, but can never seem to. The story takes a sad turn towards the end of the book and Amber ends up losing someone close to her. The reason? Someone's carelessness.
Will Amber find her way back to God? Will things ever be the same? Read this wonderful book to find out. You won’t be disappointed! Pinky Promise!
