CFBA: Breaking Up Is Hard To Do by Anne Dayton & May Vanderbilt

WHAT I HAVE TO SAY:  This was a another super cute teen book.  It was an easy read, and I fell in love with the characters!  You learned to really like Christine and want to reach out to her as a trouble teen.  She has some issues that she needs to get off her chest.  Does she take care of things? Pick up a copy and read for yourself and see!  This is one that I will be passing on to my friend with the teen daughter and is having reading choice issues with her.  This one should be one that they both agree on.



This week, the

ABOUT THE BOOK



Ana, Christine, Riley, and Zoe have grown closer than ever over the past few months, but summer is over and it's time to put their friendship to the test.

It's been a little over a year since Christine Lee's mom passed away in a tragic car accident. Now her dad is engaged to Candace--"The Bimbo"--and Christine couldn't be less thrilled. When her attitude starts to take a toll on her schoolwork, the administration forces her to attend counseling sessions. At least she gets to skip gym class!

But with her father's wedding inching closer, Christine is growing even more bitter. To make matters worse, the Miracle Girls are beginning to drift apart. Christine's anger and the pressures of high school threaten to break the girls up when they need each other the most. Will they find a way to join together to help Christine come to terms with her mother's death . . . and her father's remarriage?
