I really liked this book! I love when multiple authors come together to create one book.
It's from the perspective of three different girls. Two are best friends and one is new in town. All three work at Waffle House. Jesse is a good ole' country girl, very christian, kinda stubborn, but very genuine and a good friend. Her best friend, Vicks, is more out-there, more punkish, although that's a horrible way to describe her, but I'm assuming you know what I mean. Mel is the new girl and Jesse doesn't like her at first because she doesn't understand her - she noticed her expensive jeans and found out she's from a fairly wealthy family, and she doesn't know why she's working at the Waffle House.
Anyways, Vick's boyfriend of the past year goes away to college at the University of Miami and he doesn't contact her for weeks and she's secretly freaking out about it. Jesse has a fight with her mother so she decides to steal her car and take Vicks with her to Miami to surprise her boyfriend. At first Vicks hesitates because her and Jesse aren't getting along as well as usual. Mel intrudes and says she would like to go and that she would pay for it (the other two don't have any money) so they finally agree.
So it's basically the story of three girls who go on a road trip. I love road trips, therefore I love this book. There was rule-breaking (they break into a closed tourist shop to see a giant stuffed alligator) and drunken mistakes and crushes and pirate hotels and the saving of baby ducks. It was very eventful and just a very cute book about the troubles of teenage girls and their ridiculous lives. But it's very genuine, or at least to me, because we all went through retarded ass shit growing up. All the dumb arguments that seem so stupid now, and all the excellent make-up experiences. We've all been there.
But yeah, I loved this book.
AND I have a quote!
"You guys have to make up. You're lucky to have each other, you should just get over your sex-God fight already."
Ahahaha. I just found the way it was worded super amusing.
4/5 stars, baby!
