This was my first book by Wendy Mass. It was also my favorite. A MOVIE IS FILMED AT HER SCHOOL AND SHE GETS CHOSEN TO BE AN EXTRA! How do youNOT like that?!
I love these books like all of them I already read book 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 just want to read 9 and 10
it was a great book. its awesome!
Amazes me how much excitement you can put into one book
Finally is about a girl who turns 12 and expects to get a phone then loses it, shaves her legs and creates a big scratch, Tries out for a movie and doesn't except to make, as well as uses natural makeup and causes swelling
Hilarious about a twelve year old girl who can finally do all the things she wants but they don't turn out as good as she hopes...
really want to read it
so cool! just turned twelve and (unfortunately) did not feel quite as independent as Rory does. guess it'll come later!
Finally is the second book in the Willow Falls series, and I sure love it! It is humorous and makes you feel as if you want to turn twelve! Happy Birthday Rory! However, Rory's life of being twelve isn't going the way she planned it to be. Firstly, she gets LOTS of medical problems. Poor Rory, she is so unlucky! Secondly, she gets what she wants…but it is not exactly how it was supposed to be. Thirdly, she ends up being attacked by a killer! Well, not exactly a killer…but you'll find out what I mean. Wendy Mass wrote this novel amazingly, and this one is definitely one of my favourites in the series.
