Recommendation: This book is for teenagers, most likely for girls, who like a little romance. Whoever gets uncomfortable with swearing and alcohol shouldn't read it.

Summary: This is about a girl named Macy. She witnessed her father's death, and she reacts by keeping perfect grades and a perfect boyfriend. He ends up breaking up with her. So then her mom threw a big party, and the caterers she hires need some help, so Macey helps. She really enjoyed it, and they offered her a job, so she took it, and ends up working for Wish Catering. She works with a very pregnant lady named Delia, who is always forgetting something, and her nephews, Bert and Wes, and Kristy and Monica. It basically talks about how they become her best friends, and she and Wes play a game of Truth together, and fall in love. Her Mom freaks out about her change in personality, and makes her quit her job with Wish Catering. She is grounded, so all she is allowed to do is work and do homework. She sees Wes once, sitting on a curb with a girl that just got back from some kind of detention center who was his girlfriend, so she thinks they are still going out, and she's heartbroken, and she starts avoiding him and never sees her other friends. Her mom throws another party, and Wish Catering is there again, so she finds out from Kristy that Wes was really breaking up with that girl. She talks to her mom and gets her to understand everything, so she gets back with Wish and her and Wes end up being together.

Explanation of Rating: I liked it because it was just a simple story, a cool story about a girl, and the only thing I didn't like was the swearing.

Favorite Passage: I don't have the book, and I didn't memorize it, so I can't give a good passage.
