****SPOILER ALERT**** This was an excellent depiction of the social pressures facing junior high school girls. Indeed it was if the author was one herself. The characters’ dialogue, their obsession with clothes and makeup and their weight, etc., really rang true to me. So too did their motivations to make up the horrible lie about Mr. Mattero.
I can't believe that I wasted my time on this one. I could have used this evening to do something more fun, like my calculus homework.
Read this in one day but I don't have anything to say because it said it all.
Good Read. Good Book.
Good Read. Good Book.
I read this book in about 2 days during lunch breaks.
