For most people, the word "diva" means brilliant and over–the–top. Caitlin, however, seems to be trapped in a not–so–glamorous life with serious ex–boyfriend issues and a permanent yo–yo diet. But when she auditions and gets into the performing arts high school, everything changes. Caitlin can sing like an angel, but it will take more than her voice to help her overcome her past and shape her future. In this companion novel to Alex Flinn's acclaimed Breathing Underwater, Caitlin puts her past as "the abused girlfriend" behind her and moves onward and upward to Diva–dom. Ages:12+

This is the sequel to Breathing Underwater. Flinn does a good job making this Caitlin's story with only a few "Nick" appearances. Unfortunately, the best parts of the story are when Nick shows up.]]> 4 1 false false Mon Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat May 02 16:57:34 -0700 2009 Sat May 02 16:58:46 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jul 26 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 23 10:28:41 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 26 17:35:40 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Thu Sep 10 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 11 16:09:01 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 15:15:25 -0700 2009 One Breathin...more...]]> 1 1 false false Mon Jan 12 05:55:38 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 12 05:56:22 -0800 2009
