Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Mary Beth Miller

D.J. Schwenk, a girl from Wisconsin isn't your typical teen. She doesn't have a cell phone, worry about her plans for spring break, or keep up with the latest fashion trends. Instead she gets up at the crack of dawn to milk the cows at her family's farm. But when she decides to tryout for her high school football team, all the secrets being piled up against her come out into the open, and teaches her just because it's nice nice, doesn't mean something shouldn't be said. This book really helped me to see that just because you aren't the most popular girl in school, and the guy you like is out of your league, doesn't mean your dreams are out of reach. I would recommend this book to anyone who has given up on life, love or who thinks they aren't good enough, because you never know where life will take you, and the only way to find out is to live life, even if that means cleaning the barn; and the best part? There's a sequel!
