"The Worst thing She Ever Did" by Alice Kuipers; Summary and Review

I am currently reading The Worst Thing She Ever Did by Alice Kuipers. I am very close to being finished this book. The story is about a 17 year old girl named Sophie. She lives with her Mom, after her Father dies when she is young. She also had an older sister named Emily, who died in a tragic accident recently. Deeply affected by the accident Sophie struggles to continue on with her life. The book is based a lot on Sophie coping with her sisters death, but also touches on the subject of Sophie’s family, friends, school, and relationships.
I think that this is a five out of ten for me. I think that Kuipers could have added more aspects to this book then the stereotypical friends, boys, family and parties that most books geared towards teenage girls are about. Until the last 50 pages, you don’t know how Sophie’s sister died. Although this kept you wanting to read, it was rather annoying to go through 150 pages without knowing a major detail. All in all it was an okay book, and I think that other teenagers that like story plots like this would enjoy it a lot more then I did.

    This book sounds like a very good book to just sit down and read. It sounds like a book that I read, called,"Cracked Up to Be." She has a big secret, and you don't get to know what it is until the end of the book.
