![]() ![]() ![]() It is good to put on the library shelves for pleasure reading. I don’t think this book can be used within a Common Core curriculum. I think it is appropriate for high school libraries. But she wanted to be.This is a pretty tame romance. Perhaps she was pushing for perfection so hard because she was not perfect herself. Leah’s mom made the same mistake when she was young. Leah soon makes a realization that her sister is getting married because she is pregnant. Duffy makes her realize that she wants more from her life. Leah still has her “mom approved” boyfriend, but she does not really like him. They end up making out and they fall for each other. She was there for a party and he was there working. Leah meets Duffy one night at the country club. The one thing she kept for herself was swimming. The second is that she completely let her life be shaped by other people. The first, is why Leah decided she did not want to drive and made herself totally dependent on her boyfriend or her mother. There are a few frustrating elements to the story. She has blond hair, blue eyes and is just gorgeous. ![]() Her mother makes sure she looks perfect and has the same expectations of each of her daughters. There is no question that Leah will be valedictorian, prom queen, get into the right college and have the perfect boyfriend. Recommended (if you have extra money)Leah is the 3rd sister in her family and her mother has completely created her life. ![]()
