10 Things to Do Before You're 16 |
They'd planned to spend their fifteenth year transforming themselves from mediocre mates to gorgeous goddesses. But when they notice that their sixteenth birthdays are rapidly approaching, they realize that they're running a bit behind schedule.
So the girls make a list of the ten things they think they need to do to be more popular and beautiful. But from homemade hair extensions to bad fake tans, it's just one catastrophe after another. And to make matters worse, it seems like the two hottest guys in school are always watching!!
Not only are they far from being the sixteen-year-old goddesses they set out to become, but it looks like love is off the agenda too.
Or is it?...

Grade 7-9–This fluffy narrative takes place just outside present-day London. Anna and Beth decide to create a list of 10 things to do to become fabulous before their 16th birthdays. Their priorities range from getting fantastic hair and finding hot boyfriends to perfecting leg waxing and fake tans and learning to walk in stilettos. The teens'' voices are believable, and there are some laugh-out-loud results of their attempts to become extraordinary. However, one might wonder where the girls'' parents are for some of their more ridiculous schemes. Also, the ending wraps up a bit too quickly and the big night out, which is the goal of all their efforts, is anticlimactic after so much preparation. Readers who clamor for chick-lit imports such as Louise Rennison''s Georgia Nicolson books (HarperCollins) will enjoy this one as well, but it''s not a priority purchase.–Rebecca Stine, The Ferguson Library, Stamford, CT
