I really enjoy Robin's books. They are great to read after emotionally charged stories. There is usually one of two characters that I can relate to. Not in a vagina hat, chicken dance kind of way, but relatable none the less. ;)  
Jodi and Val make a great couple and their friends are not only supportive, but down to earth and funny. I can't imagine anyone growing up in a house with parents like Jodie's and turning out even semi-normal. Val's Aunt Karen (sp?) reminds me of the grandmother. Whenever me and my cousins spent the night at her house and it thundered outside, she would turn off all the lights and make everyone sleep in the same room. We never asked why and hated every minute of it.

The narration was great. This is going in my favorites list! Laugh out loud funny!!

I really like Robin Alexander's writing style but I'll admit that this book took me a long time to get through. The 1st half moved fairly slowly for me but the second half made up for the slowness of the 1st. In fact I'll admit that people in the airport were looking at me funny when I cackled outloud at some of the descriptions. It may not be my favorite Robin Alexander book but it ended up being a fun read
