Relatable! Even at 23...

This made me think back to my teenage days- and I could totally relate! It describes, in great detail, things a girl feels when she's growing up; how we have the ability to obsess over the silliest things, even though they don't seem so silly at the time. I found the book amongst one of my friends' stuff, picked it up, and literally couldn't put it down. It hooked me from the beginning. Reading this makes you feel like you're not the only [odd one] in the world, and that other people have problems, too. I also like the fact that it wasn't "sugar-coated." The conversation between the friends sounded like how my friends and I have talked. All in all...GREAT BOOK!

It was a real eye-opener

this book really opened my eyes. Rachel Vail yet again captures the exact feelings of a teenage girl. The main character, Molly, is growing up and starting to learn how to deal with more serious problems like friends, boys, parents, and life in general. The ending is sad, as Molly's best friend lets her down but she grows stronger from this let down. All teenage girls can relate with Molly and what she goes through.

"Ever After" is a beautiful novel

This is definitly one of my favorite books I have ever read. No other author writes about teen girls as well as Rachael Vail does. This book is so true, it was like I was reading about myself. It is about a girl named Molly who is struggling with feelings, friendships, weight, family, boys, her identity, and life in general. I definetly hope you read this book (you will love it if you are anything like me!) and every other book by Rachael Vail as well. This is one of the few books I truly loved reading.

Completely sums up what I feel and felt when I was that age.

Ever After was absolutely captivating. I loved it. I could and can relate to everything that was described in the book. It was so on key to what a young teenage girl feels about her friends, family, boys and her all-around life. It was a great book and I would love to have a truthful and loving friend like Grace.

Ever After is not only a good book, but the best.

The book Ever After doesn't start out slow. It starts with a bang and carries you off into a world you won't want to leave. It's a thinner novel, but it is jam packed with comedy, fun, and the things real teenage girls go through. I like this book because it doesn't sound like an adult wrote it. It could be anyone of my friends's journals, and it's extremely funny. I read it thinking, " I've been through that, " and " That sounds like me. " I wanted to be the main charachter's best friend, it was so realistically written. I love this book. I have read it many times, and I think I will go read it again
