Rhys turned to writing children’s books under her married name, Janet Quin-Harkin. Her first picture book was an immediate success and won several awards. More picture books followed, then her agent asked her to write a book for young adults. This was a turning point in Rhys’s career. Her first young adult novel was an instant hit. By her third she was selling half a million copies. Many more popular YA novels followed until Rhys decided she had said all she wanted to say about teenage love and angst, and she turned her real love—mysteries.

See that sullen-looking teen model up there sulking on the front cover? That's Kristy and that cover should tell you all you need to know about her. She's an entitled spoiled brat who whines and complains endlessly when she's forced to move to Hawaii. Oh, the horror!
During this Sweet Dreams outing you will get:
-Kristy's prejudiced, ignorant judgements on Hawaiians (bonus racism when her dopey ex-boyfriend comes for a visit!)
-Kristy thinking only of herself and her needs
-Lots of flouncing, yelling & foot stomping
Yay? It did have an awesome setting, though. Too bad Kristy couldn't have been eaten by a shark.
