For as much crap I give this series, I LOVED this one!! I have no idea why...was it Vicki's bitchiness? Lori's cheating coming back to bite her in the ass? The math medal? Danielle not being a pain in the ass? I dunno.
It's probably because this was the first one in the series I ever read as a kid and it brought back memories. Or it's because when I first read it, I didn't know how bad the characters would all piss me off.
