A turning point is exactly what Lucy Loverling does NOT want. Everything is changing around her, and suddenly she has to make all sorts of decisions. Everyone else knows who and what she wants to be except her. Izzie has become friends with the glamorous Nesta, and Lucy isn’t certain she likes a threesome. Nesta and Izzie look sixteen, but Lucy, at fourteen, can still pass for a twelve-year-old.

But then one day Lucy sees the most wonderful boy crossing the street, and things do start to change — in all areas of her life…

I got 8 or so of the books in this series from a generous member on Paperbackswap that was willing to make a deal with me. They are all in bright neon colors like this one, and look very pretty on my shelf!

This was a very short read, clocking in at just 163 mass market sized pages. I enjoyed being able to carry it around in my bag and it not weighing a ton – it also was a good book to read in between other books to get my mind off the characters I had been reading about previously.

I enjoyed the plot line – it wasn’t too in depth but I didn’t find it so silly that I didn’t want to keep reading – the ending actually made me wonder about the characters and what happens later, so I am glad I have several of the others in the series to keep me occupied!
