Colie Sparks is sent to Colby, North Carolina, for the summer to stay with her eccentric aunt Mira, while her mother, queen of the anti-fat infomercial, tours Europe, and she expects the worst. Colie has no friends at home, and doesn't expect to find any in Colby. But then she gets a job at a café, and fellow waitresses Morgan and Isabel show her her true potential, and it's a real eye-opener. This was my first Sarah Dessen book, and I loved it. It deals with finding yourself, something every teenager can relate to.
