Reader reviewed by Dylana

This book is fast but it really grabs you and you keep wanting to find out what happens next. The main charcter Cyd Charrisse is so hip and interesting. You'll enjoy her a lot. SHe goes to New Yrok to stay with her real father after getting in trouble with her mom at home. In new York she meets her other side of the family and learns things about them and herself she has never known before. SHe takes this chacne to experience the world and she grows stronger and wiser and more independent as her family relationships grow stonger, as well. this is a great book for teenage girls because its fun, funny, and captivating. Plus Cyd has a rag doll she intuitively communicates with trhoughout the book, which is wierd, but cool at the same time. Cyd is such a different, independent character and is so fun to read about!
