This hilarious story begins through the perspective of Jadyn, a 4th grade tomboy, who is best friends with Phillip, the boy next door. Which is nice because he likes throwing a ball around and doing fun non-girly stuff. Although, not long after, a new boy named, Danny, who's mean and thinks football should only be played by boys...hummph!, moves in down the street. So not cool! It takes a couple of days, but Jadyn finally convinces Danny, GIRLS CAN PLAY FOOTBALL TOO and soon, she, Phillip and D ...more

11/18/2015 -- Reread this recently and enjoyed it once more. I agree with everything in my previous review. I probably wouldn't go to 5 Stars, more 4.5 Stars, but I don't modify ratings for a re-read. I tried to jump right into That Wedding, and lost interest for a bit. I've been in a bit of a book funk. You'll see. Either way, this is a good read; unique, original story .. if you stick to the end, and interesting characters.

Happy Reading!

5 Stars.

I really enjoyed this book.
I had a hard time for awhile because I thought the wrong people were getting together. Then by the end, I realized I was wrong. It was meant to be the way it was.

This book made me, happy, then really sad, then hopefully, then disappointment, then Love and Joy. It took me all by surprise but isn't that what makes a great book. The ability to change my mood with each turn of a page.

I loved Jaden she is just wonderful. Very realistic book and I just really enjoyed it. I ...more

Cute read. It's written into mostly journal format and it has these really adorable little drawings at the top of most chapters. It was a quick, cute love story.

My only complaint is that the ebook is $7.99, seems like a little much. But, if that doesnt bother you then you should enjoy this one. ...more

Omg!! So loved this book, like love love love loved this book! It's been a long time since I've read a book that kept me from being able to fall asleep at night because I kept wondering what was going to happen next! I've had this book on my kindle forever and I'm so mad that I waited so long to read it!!! I love Jaydyn and Danny and Phillip, they all made me laugh, cry, smile and otherwise feel a part of their lives. I'm going right now to download the sequel!! ...more
