CAN YOU BE too perfect?

From the outside, Rachel looks like the perfect daughter in the perfect family. She’s a straight-A student, a gifted musician, and a good friend. But Rachel feels as if it’s all falling apart. Her brother, Charles, was just kicked out of boarding school and is now at home, wreaking havoc. Her sister, Jessica, has problems of her own, which Rachel thinks it’s her job to help solve. And Rachel herself is considering adding drama club, community service, and class president to her already crowded roster of activities. Rachel’s best friends, Stephanie and Alison, urge Rachel to lighten up and enjoy the end of seventh grade. Easy for them to say. Not so easy for Rachel. Not even when Jeremy Dragon, the coolest boy in ninth grade, notices her. Is it possible that perfection isn’t the key to an exciting life?

This Is My Favorite Book

My favorite author is Judy Blume and this is my favorite book. I also have a brother a lot like Charles, he ruins everything. Overall I really related to this book, and even if you don’t have a brother like Charles I think you can really relate to this book. Everyone should read it, the story is flawless!

Excellent Book

Just like Judy Blume’s many others, this is excellent . I have loved and felt connected to her portrayal of very real preteen and teen girls since I was one and the books hold up.

Fun and entertaining

Character development along with humor. Entertaining, lighthearted, with fun surprises! Recommended for a light and easy listening.

Very good!!

It was relatable, very entertaining and takes you through the highs and lows of being a teenager! Loved it!

Yay

This is a good book I love that it has a little bit of romance but not to much it makes me feel like I am really there
