A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

There are, Alice decides, 272 horrible things left to happen to her in her life, based on the number of really horrible things that have happened already. She figures that out after the disaster of the talent show. And she realizes that there is no way to fend them off.

But, she reasons, if you don't have a mother, maybe a sister would help. Maybe lots of sisters. A worldwide sisterhood! Sisterhood means more sympathy and less likely odds that the next horrible thing will strike when Alice is by herself. But, Sisterhood also comes with a whole new set of problems for Alice. Can she be Sisters with all three girls who want to be her brother Lester's girlfriend? In fact, how do boys fit into Universal Sisterhood at all? And how far should she you go when being part of the crowd means doing something you don't want to do?

Alice copes with life in her own way, and her solutions to her endless problems are often funny and surprisingly right.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Alice discovers that the key to surviving year 8 is fitting in - getting her ears pierced like everyone else, dressing like everyone else, and joining the same clubs as everyone else. Suddenly Alice finds herself one of the 'in' crowd. But the trouble is that some stuff the 'in' crowd like to do seems either silly or just plain boring. When one of her best friends, Elizabeth is excluded and loyal old boyfriend Patrick is singled out for humiliation by her popular new friends, Alice has to reconsider some of her decisions. Can Alice be herself and still be a part of the 'in' crowd?
