boring but great all together
This is book is all fun and exciment, but at some points of the book it does get a little boring. That is I think because something good is about to happen or in some cases a disaster.

This book is about a girl who is home schooled and then she has to go to public school and she hates it Her mom gets dignoised with cancer and they have to sell half of the oracherd. She hates it also, and puts up signs trying top scare the neighbors away. She finds out one of her new neighbors are in her class. Read to find out more about this thrilling and exciting book.

bad
i believe that this book is boring. I saw no point in it. I couldn't even finish it because the beginning was so boring I was falling asleep reading it and because of that I didn't get either anywhere or very far and I must say I am a decent reader. In school I am in advance reading and I finish reading books fast depending on how good a book is, and I must say trying to finish this book was a waste of my valuable time. I only get one life and and hour or more a day was wasted on trying to read this book. Now this is the only book I have read from this author so I am not saying never read any of her books.

Waste of time
I will start off by saying this: The book meant well, it was not trying to harm anyone in any way, But, it was probably the worst book I have ever read! If you are looking to buy or read this book, I would recommend you not to. Don't waste your time, or your money, trust me it's just not worth it!
