Kirkwood suffers from a mortal blow--and it's not her parents' divorce. It's
her mother's remarriage to some guy that lives in Truman, Oklahoma.
And his two sons, Logan and Robbie.
so--because he won't budge in his dislike for Bella. Robbie is some boy
genius, fond of superheroes and CNN, and starting grammar school. His
penchant for spouting off facts most adults don't know is adorable.
Bella has it rough adjusting to life in Truman--and her hoity-toity attitude
doesn't help. When word spreads as to just how Bella feels about her
fellow-Trumanites, she becomes the school pariah.
But her assignment to the school newspaper could be her big break. Can
a former advice columnist to Manhattan's finest prep schoolers cut it in
big time investigative journalism--or will her first and only article end her
up in the trash--literally?
Luke Sullivan, her high strung editor; Moxie, her cat with all the allergens;
Jake Finley, her new step-dad with secrets of his own; Budge and his
recycled hearse-mobile---just what do they all hold for Bella?
Filled with teen angst, romance, some intrigue, LOTS of witty humor and
God's heart, "So Not Happening" is oh, so in my top ten teen lit reads! I'm
voting it "Best Teen Lit Series of 2009", and awarding it the Golden
Bookmark for Teen Literature Excellence.
Happy Reading!
