Just as awesome as I read it before.I didn't expect to enjoy this book so much! Better than 11 Birthdays. It had me laughing with tears in my eyes - growing up was just like this. And what a great thread running behind the story, not forced or preachy but so wise.There are a few wincing moments - Rory is always managing to injure herself and you really feel her pain - so it's not for a squeamish young reader. And while Rory has a beautiful simplicity and is courageously independent (at least by the end of the book) the behaviour
So I just finished reading this book and I really enjoyed it. Poor Rory made me laugh out loud in parts of this story. It was really funny and a good story. The ending was a little sudden, but still very unique and cool. All of the connections were like "Ah-ha!" I have read the other two books in this series and I am secretly hoping another book will come out soon (hint, hint Wendy Mass...) Overall, this was a really good book.
haha i read this like 4 years ago or something and didn't even know it was the 2nd book in a series; it's the only one i read whoops
Finally was a great book with the classic lesson, don't rush to grow up. Have fun while it lasts because when you grow up later, you might realize it's not fun being older and you wish you were younger but like they say, there's no turning back now. I would recommend this book to any good reader who loves an interesting story and I'm excited to read more from Wendy Mass! Amazing Book :)
Finally is a part of the Willow Falls series, but the character from the first book 11 Birthdays are background characters you don't interact with too much until the end. Rory is having a bit of a hard time and just when her school is being a part of a teenage film - she ends up cast as an extra but all sorts of things start going wrong - she has an allergic reaction to gold earrings, natural make up and her new pet bunny is trying to kill her. I really love the message of these books and the
I had loved 11 Birthdays and so was especially disappointed with this pseudo-sequel (really, pretty much a completely independent story). Much of it takes place in a mall, following the main character who has finally turned 12 and will now get to do a whole list of things her family said she had to wait until she was 12 to do - like get a pet, get her ears pierced, etc (all activities that are accomplished by going to the mall, pretty much). Her list is lame, her parents are lame, and there are
