Customer Reviews

Great book for teens and tweens!

Really engaging story about a young woman we can all identify with! It's great to see a novel for tweens and teens that's fun, pretty real, and yet positive. It was sweet, but not syrupy, and had a satisfying conclusion. Part of the reason I liked it was that it didn't seem cookie-cutter like some of the series books I've seen. I decided to buy it for my young next door neighbor as well as my niece. I definitely recommend this book for the girls in your life!

Positive story for teen girls

As a high school teacher who is always looking for good books for my students, this is a great find! It's juicy enough to keep almost any teen girl interested, while providing positive and healthy characters with whom to identify. I know the middle school girls at my son's K-8 are passing this book from one to another as if it were a golden treasure. That's because it's a delicious read!
