Sydney has always been a good kid, never causing any trouble
for her parents. Her older brother,
Peyton, was too and he always seemed to overshadow Sydney. When Peyton started acting out and getting into
trouble with the law, which ended with a prison sentence after hitting someone
while driving drunk, Sydney’s whole family still seemed to revolve around
Peyton. Sydney changed schools in an
effort to start anew and has made new friends and has started changing her life
somewhat, but at home, her parents still don’t seem to see her, except as an
extension of Peyton. This was a great
offering by Dessen. She is a great
writer and her books really speak to teen girls. This is no exception.
