How far is too far? That’s the question that seems to be ever in Lissa Mansfiedl’s mind since moving to San Fransisco. How far will she go to be accepted in the “in crowd?” How far is she willing to go with cute Callum McCloud? How far is she willing to bend to get along with her talkative-opinionated-wacky new roommate, Gillian Chang? And most importantly of all, how far is she willing to push herself to make sure her faith in God is evident in her life?

These questions and more keep Lissa on her toes as she tries to fit into her school life. It doesn’t help that she’s gotten herself on the planning committee for the Benefactor’s Day Ball – the biggest event of the year at Spencer Academy. Can she find a hot celeb to book for the Ball or will she end up disappointing the entire student body?

I don’t read a lot of YA (young adult) Lit, but this book so much fun. The characters are charming and right from the beginning I was pulling for Lissa to make the right choices. The best part about this book is that while moms like me (thirty-somethings) will enjoy it, it’s also appropriate to be shared with teens and tweens. It would make a great conversations starter for moms and daughters!
