Return to Sender by Julie Cross is a follow up story to Letters to Nowhere. I am told that Julie will be publishing shorter stories for this series rather than additional full length novels. That is great for readers that want more of Jackson and Karen but don't want to wait.In Return to Sender, we catch up with Jackson and Karen in the summer. Jackson has graduated high school and is preparing for college in the fall. Karen just won an international competition and is moving further along in her gymnastics career. Karen is making a lot of strides towards dealing with her parents death. Life continues to move on and we get to watch that happen for the characters.I really enjoy Karen, Jackson and the other characters in the story especially after watching them grow so much in the last book. Return to Sender is quite a bit shorter than Letters to Nowhere, and if you know that going in and that there will be more books in the future, it works out okay.I really don't think you can read this book without reading Letters to Nowhere first, as I think you would be pretty lost and it wouldn't make much sense to you. I recommend Return to Sender to anyone that has read Letters to Nowhere. If you haven't read this series yet, it is time you got started!
