When a new boy enters the scene and makes Char feel like, well, a total girl...and two of her other friends have a falling out that may or may not be related to one of them deciding he possibly wants to be more than friends with Char...being friends with all these boys suddenly becomes a lot more complicated.
Goodreads Summary
It's never easy to be friends with boys when you're a high school girl who doesn't necessarily consider herself to be a social butterfly. For Char, however, even her social ineptitude's don't stop her from being friends with boys. She has had trouble with backstabbing ex-best friends and harsh stepsisters and finds that boys are easier to get along with. Will she ever get tired of offering love advice, writing song lyrics, and being the "go-to girl?"
In a book full of major characters, it may have been easy for Charlotte to slip into the background. Instead, she grows with the story, maturing and altering slightly into an admirable character in the end. Charlotte isn't particularly mean or nice, sweet or sarcastic...she has her own freshness about her that is easy to appreciate. The other band members could have blended together, but the author sets them apart with different characteristics and actions that make them memorable. The characters, as a whole, were fun to get to know.
Terra Elan McVoy's style of writing is clear and fluid. The reader will have a hard time setting this book down, always needing to discover what will happen in Charlotte's life next. The best aspect of this book is its complete likability, it is easy to relate to. The reader will probably be able to picture scenes from this book occurring in real life. Overall, this book should not be missed and is recommended to young adult/teen readers.
