• Cracked Up to Be by Courtney Summers

  Parker Fadley has been let back into school and allowed to graduated as long as she does all her homework, doesn’t get caught drunk in school and meets with the school counselor once a week.  She is still trying to push everyone away and but also telling everyone she is fine.  The worst part is no one knows why “Perfect” Parker Fadley went from perfect to a drunk loser who tries to commit suicide.

  I really enjoyed this book.  Parker was a frustrating character who you love to hate.  I wanted so badly to find out why she did the things she did that I just couldn’t put the book down.  I would recommend this book to teens who are looking for a great realistic fiction book with a twist.
