Having picked this up on a whim, I'm considerably glad I did. The main character was funny, charismatic, and flawed--the perfect leading lady. Her niece was just as entertaining. I'm looking forward to the sequel, whenever that is slated to come out. (show less)

I saw this in the young adult book section in the library because the title stood out :P
However it was a case of don't judge a book by it's title, as it wasn't that great really. It's about a teenage girl who is an "A" grade student, very well behaved and then her completely opposite niece end sup living with her and her family and causes havoc. All sorts happen that make the main character start to see life a little differently. She turned vegan to take her mind off a boy she broke up with, and it very disappointed me that she doesn't stay vegan! It was hardly the main point of the story though, and I haven't really ruined it for you, as I don't suggest you bother! (show less)

  First, an article about a challenge to this book by parents in a school in Jacksonville, FL: http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/local/news-article.aspx?storyid=76299

  Overall, I think this book might h... (show more)

  Overall, I think this book might have been too subtle for me. Mara and V don't get along, can't stand each other, etc. until suddenly they can. I felt like there was a little bit of character development that I missed. Otherwise, this is a good story about how the "good girl" can have a positive influence on the "bad girl" and (more importantly?) vice versa, without being too heavy-handed. (show less)

  This is my most favorite book! The autor is amazing and I love her style. I read this book whenever I'm down or I'm just plain bored and I usually finish it in a day. :D
