review 1: Although I read this a few years back, the plot stuck in my mind because it was like back to back episodes of EastEnders. It had every stereotype for a dysfunctional British family possible. A 40 something year old mother who gets pregnant secretly behind her husband's back, a moany teenager who has a love interest but he turns into a jerk, has the 'coolest' best friend. An annoying twit of a younger brother who acts like a baby himself. And the husband who retreats into his career, locking himself in his office with lots of alcohol.And then the build up..The 40 year old something mother goes crazy with buying new equipment and new things for the unborn baby, too bad that when it comes along, she becomes depressed and ignores it, leaving her moany teenage daughter to deal... more with it.This book was only good for one reason, it was overly dramatic and I wanted to smack the mother in the face. Other than that, stay away from it. I would recommend to read it if you're between 13-15.
review 2: This book all about the flaws of a teenager like peer pressure, boys, friends and school. Gabby's life is a rollar-coaster. With her best friend Angie, they rule the world, however, when Si (the boy who Angie likes) kisses Gabby, her life turns into trouble. She loses a best friend, get bullied by the Gems, loses the boy, her brothers just get weirder, her Mum and Dad fight, her mum having a baby, the pimples and all the stuff a teenager goes through. I throughly enjoyed this book, and I recommend it to 12-16 year old girls, who are going through this phase in their life. less
