OVERVIEW:
PLEASE READ THIS! MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!
Okay, maybe that was a bit melodramatic, but I’m sorry, I’m
feeling a bit melodramatic at the moment.
Here’s the deal. My name is Brooklyn Pierce, I’m fifteen
years old, and I am decisionally challenged. Seriously, I can’t remember the
last good decision I made. I can remember plenty of crappy ones though.
Including that party I threw when my parents were out of town that accidentally
burned down a model home. Yeah, not my finest moment, for sure.
But see, that’s why I started a blog. To enlist readers to
make my decisions for me. That’s right. I gave up. Threw in the towel. I let
someone else be the one to decide which book I read for English. Or whether or
not I accepted an invitation to join the debate team from that
cute-in-a-dorky-sort-of-way guy who gave me the Heimlich Maneuver in the
cafeteria. (Note to self: Chew the melon before swallowing it.) I even let them
decide who I dated!
Well, it turns out there are some things in life you simply
can’t choose or have chosen for you—like who you fall in love with. And now
everything’s more screwed up than ever.
But don’t take my word for it, read the book and decide for
yourself. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll scream in frustration. Or maybe
that’s just me. After all, it’s my life.
REVIEW:
Ok so let me just say that this book is really cute and the
story was such a pleasant read! Now that it’s out of the way let the reviews
begin…
Brooklyn is a fifteen year old who has a best friend and who
also happens to be the queen bee in their school, so that makes her the
sidekick. She always follows her best friend’s order and it seems like she can’t
decide on her own because she is always in her best friend’s shadow. Anyway the
side story is that Brooklyn is also known as “baby Brooklyn” why? Because when
she was two years old she fell off a mine and got stuck, the rescue process was
televised and that’s why she’s a bit famous.
But it seems that danger and unfortunate events always follow
her… The trouble began when she accidentally burned down her mother’s project
model house. It was her best friend’s idea but she got all the blame and the
punishment. Another unfortunate event happened when her so called bff
unfriended her or more like dismissed her in front of the whole school and now
she’s an outcast…
Brooklyn feels that lately all her decision seems to be screw
ups. So then she made a blog and she post stuff that needs to be decided on.
And from there her journey started, she met people, fell in love, experienced
loss and came more decisions…
I liked this book because it’s funny and it’s very
entertaining! The character was easy to like, but her decisions gave me a
headache! It reminds me of myself when I was a teenager, all the wrong decisions
and the best friend drama and boys!! There are a lot of good points in the
book, and the writing great. I definitely recommend this book for those who
like a good book on a lazy afternoon reading... J
RATING:
4.5
