There is, just that the chapters are super long. This book has 11 chapters and in each it's described one of the thing they did but they should have not :p.
Cahapter one was quite fun. An easy light read. :) All the: we'll leave you stay with that mother we never meet in real life is a little exagerated, but let not go there, because I'm sure a lot of things that are going to happen in this book will be a little over the top, but hey, as long as they keep me entertained....

Chapter 3: I'm enjoying this book so far! The main character is quirky and interesting(view spoiler)
I like how the story is told from the past and present. (view spoiler)

Margarita wrote: "just continuing this now. I'm out all day. hmm i am not enjoying this one so much though"No need to force yourself if you really don't like it. The writing is quite simplistic and the characters are shallow, but I wasn't expecting a lot when I started it so... I'm going to finish it. It's an easy fast read ^^.
Chapter 5

I felt exactly the same way about her! But it gets better, I'm sure you'll like the ending :D

She's not really stupid. She's been neglected all her life. she just lost her faith in love. :)
Chapter 7
(view spoiler)
@MargaritaThe craziness of it all made the book fun to read :D
@Tessa
I wondered a lot and couldn't think of anyone! I liked the mystery haha
OMG. I think I am going to die from laughing so hard.
i am so pissed. aggggggggh.
my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...share your reviews also! ahh this was such a relaxing book! I rated it 3 stars.
I also finished this one and was quite displeased. There were some funny parts but overall this book failed as both a chick-lit and a coming of age novel.Chapter 10

I think the problems with her ..."
I felt exactly the same way!! I really wanted to like this book but it just wasn't for me...
i almost DNFed this one but I gave it 3 stars because it certainly made laugh! Although the ending made me so pissed because of Noah, this was still a good read.
Ahh mixed reviews!
How do you find this book Christina? :)
Yeah, it was pretty funny, but not enough to make it up for the lack of character development, or actual story. ^^
2 girls + 3 guys + 1 house - parents = 10 things April and her friends did that they (definitely, maybe, probably) shouldn't have.
If given the opportunity, what sixteen-year-old wouldn't jump at the chance to move in with a friend and live parent-free? Although maybe "opportunity" isn't the right word, since April had to tell her dad a tiny little untruth to make it happen (see #1: "Lied to Our Parents"). But she and her housemate Vi are totally responsible and able to take care of themselves. How they ended up "Skipping School" (#3), "Throwing a Crazy Party" (#8), "Buying a Hot Tub" (#4), and, um, "Harboring a Fugitive" (#7) at all is kind of a mystery to them.
In this hilarious and bittersweet tale, Sarah Mlynowski mines the heart and mind of a girl on her own for the first time. To get through the year, April will have to juggle a love triangle, learn to do her own laundry, and accept that her carefully constructed world just might be falling apart . . . one thing-she-shouldn't-have-done at a time.
Tessa and I will be reading this on June 4th. Feel free to join us! :)
