being perfect is no easy feat, and I think the author has captured all the tension plus drama between two sisters superbly, without giving any negativity which could have spoiled the whole story. And let me tell you that it was right on!!. I absolutely loved it! First of all I want to say that I can totally relate to Andi-Alaina relationship and feelings for each other.
I received this book in return for an honest review. In addition, the author subtly hints, through snippets of conversation, that all may not be as it seems, and that Andi's perceptions of reality may be clouded by her own emotions. Andi's humor prevents her from becoming an unlikeable character, and, thankfully, her shallow and selfish attitude turns around and she finally starts thinking about others instead of just herself. The real life action is cleverly mirrored in the stage production of Cinderella, starring Jarod as Prince Charming and Andi as one of the step-sisters. Gobstopper!" The story is fast-paced and written in a great natural style from the point-of-view of sixteen-year-old Andi. Even the swearing is cute, for example, "Oh. "Twelve Steps" is a great clean read for teens. Who will he choose? And will he be too late? Maybe love is right under our noses the whole time we just have to stop looking in the wrong direction. Even Jarod seems to be ambivalent about the two sisters. What's with the sabotaging behavior of Laina's so-called best friend Kendra? And what dark secret is Laina hiding from Andi? Andi also realizes that Laina's not the only one getting attention from boys she herself has no shortage of admirers, especially the ever-present Dave. When she finds out that Laina has a crush on Shane, who's going out with Laina's ex-best friend Rachel, Andi hatches a plan to set Laina up with him so that she can have Jarod for herself.Īlong the way, Andi discovers that Laina is not as perfect as she thought she's got problems of her own. So Andi sets in motion a twelve step plan to get her life back on track.
Andrea Anderson (Andi) has to compete with her perfect sister Laina not only for her parents' attention, but for the affections of Jarod, who also happens to be Laina's best friend.
