Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Tamara
This book is the best book ever!I picked it up from my library just because I was in a hurry And It is an excellent book..
I'm 12!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Anez, 12 years old
This is one of the best books I have ever read and I read a lot of books. I think Jaclyn Moriarty is a fabulous sauthor, and just after reading the short biography of her in the book, she inspired me and is now my role model. My school asked me to choose one book to purchase for the library and I wrote down ANY BOOK BY JACLYN MORIARTY. I am really sad that she only has one book out, but I think thyat this one one book is good enough to make up for any number of books she could have written

Rated 4 of 5 of 5 by For the love of books!

Feeling Sorry for Celia was a good book. I especially like the way it was written in a letter format, which is a distinctive feature. It was a funny read and is a 'feel good' book. Recommended to anyone!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Molly
I'm Molly, age 13 and i ABSOLUTELY LOVED this book. I especially liked how it was written, because i thought it made it stand out from other books with somewhat of a same storyline.
My favorite parts: The notes to and from her mom. They made me laugh out loud and i still sometimes ask my friends to give me something good you can do with purple lipstick!!!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Amy
I loved the book I am not big on reading but found that i just couldn't put it down. It is an excellent example of being a teenager with a few strange twists to it

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by RachelJ
If you think this book rocks, you should read the sequal! They are both fantastic.
