review 1: If anyone thinks this book is stupid just from the title, they are dead wrong. One of the most enlightening and relatable books I've ever read. There were times when I laughed, cried, and cringed. The scene where Eli is at the dentist and has a complete mental breakdown made it so relatable to me, and I cried so hard during that scene. I think every teenager at some point feels that way, but to have someone you can relate to....it just makes you feel normal. Like it's okay to not be okay. That is why I loved this book so much. I found it on a sale rack at a used book store and I have been sharing it around since the day I turned the last page. All of my friends have read it and my closest cousin, and they all loved it. I would recommend it to any teenager or young adult wh... moreo has a mother, who has a significantly younger sibling, who has a friend they're jealous of, who has a crush on a boy, and who knows what it's like to be lost. Read it, you won't regret it.
review 2: Ahhh life through they eyes of a teenager! Believe it or not, I found this book totally believable. Eli just can't seem to wrap her head around why her mother is so proud to dress up like a french fry for work and she knows that it must be because her mother is hell bent on embarrassing her. Then her fry of a mom gets pregnant which of course must also have something to do with her. The strange relationship this family has makes them quiet endearing and this is a household where emotions run high at all times! An edgy, yet realistic view into the life of a teen with the bundle of emotional outbursts like icing on a cake. What a fun and emotional book. Great read for anyone ages 12 and up. No language because her mother has trained her to use other words to keep her from swearing. less
