What’s the point of making a New Year’s resolution when weeks later your life goes to the toilet anyway? Sixteen-year-old Tatum Duncan’s life has turned upside down. Her best friend and grandmother has died, her mother is threatening to send her to an all-girls school for defending herself against a bully, and her abusive boyfriend nearly kills hers. 1989 isn’t turning out to be her year. But just when it seems like all is lost, Tatum is saved by Zach Bertano, her longtime friend and secret crush. Her dormant attraction to him surfaces with his persistent attention. As her love for Zach grows, she comes to learn that he too has skeletons, and his issues could affect Tatum’s life in ways she never imagined. Zach’s overlooked her baggage—can she overlook his?

much to love!
(
Janie McGaugh 9:29pm June 26, 2015)

I LOVE that soo many of you listed a song. Doesn't have
to be an all-time fav, just a great 80's song. I agree
with you all, there's just too many to pick just one--
impossible! Because I'm jealous and want to jump back in
this topic, I want to pick a song. I'll give you a song
that I love and also inspired me during my writing, but
not listed anywhere. Hmmm Anyone love Adam Ant, "Strip"
I can't help myself with that one. :) Keep the good
songs coming...

I've always liked "Burnin' For You" by Blue Oyster Cult. Some of my favorite songs though were in the years leading up to the 80's: "One of These Nights" by the Eagles, "Cold as Ice" by Foreigner, "Go Your Own Way" by Fleetwood Mac, and "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" by the Hollies. Oh, and Santana, too!
