Girls Drive Jeeps (Paperback)

Meet my little sister Blakely O Connor: Blakely is 13 and has been best friends with Tamara Day since the day Blake defended Tam against the cool girls who called her ugly. When Blakely learns that she and Tamara are heading to different high schools she forges our mom s signature to qualify her for Stanton High School. Our parents are divorced and Mom is MIA most of the time so it seems like a good plan and I m not about to tell on my sister. Anyway Blakely won t be without her best friend and now that that s settled Blakely thinks her problems are solved. Over the summer the girls turn 14 and even meet a close-knit crew of Stanton kids while swimming at the reservoir. On Blakely s first day of ninth grade she already has a reputation as the freshman who threw the best party anyone had seen. But ninth grade as with life can t be so easily managed. Told by me--Blakely s older sister Vanessa--this is a story of first loves secrets betrayals late-night parties found family and road trips in jeeps.
