In this eleventh installment in the series, Alice and her friends have a lot to think about during the second half of eighth grade, including sex, prejudice, and the upcoming semi-formal. Alice's realistic dilemmas, confusion, and curiosity will resonate with readers; her strong sense of who she is and what she wants continues to guide her and this consistently dynamic series.
