It's always the trope that teenagers fight with their parents all the time, but that isn't universal by any means. I was still crazy about my parents when I was a teenager, and a bunch of my friends were too. Nice to see it reflected in fiction.Jenny @ Reading the Endhttp://readingtheend.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6318555580612720798.post-45925696489301895152015-01-15T19:12:45.676-05:002015-01-15T19:12:45.676-05:00Great review!
