Loved it!!! Should've at least been one of the finalists for Best YA book of the year! So funny and witty and actually surprising. I had no idea that it was going where it ended up going, which is kind of rare for YA.
If you like non-fantasy YA, it's a must-read, you won't be disappointed. ( )

Si tuviese la oportunidad, ¿qué chica de dieciséis años no se mudaría con su mejor amiga para vivir lejos de sus padres? Eso mismo pensó April aunque para conseguirlo tuviese que contar una pequeña mentira. Pero ella y su compañera de piso, Vi, se creen totalmente responsables y capaces de cuidar de ellas mismas.
April, una chica que no dispone de demasiada libertad se encuentra, de repente, con toda la del mundo, y aprovecha para hacer realidad algunos de sus deseos… solo que muchas veces hay que tener cuidado con lo que se desea…
2 chicas + 3 chicos + 1 casa - padres= 10 cosas que April y sus amigas hicieron (y que probablemente no deberian haber hecho)

I have been a fan of previous Sarah Mlynowski books, so I wanted to start collecting her other work. This was a really quick and fun read. Yes, things happen that truly do not seem realistic for teens in high school but that is why I liked it. It was not what I was expecting.

This does deal with body image, cheating, abandonment, divorce, first love, drinking, and so much more. Where this was not something that would blow you away, I do recommend it if you are looking for something cute and fluffy. It was exactly what I needed at the time and I am glad I picked it up. ( )

Amusing and entertaining but ultimately pretty shallow. April refuses to move when her father & stepmom do. Instead she comes up with a plan to stay with a friend who has an absent mother. So April and Vi are basically unsupervised for the school year. April is trying to come to terms with her parents splitting up and not living with her brother who went to France with her mother. She clings to her boyfriend as a constant in her changeable life - but over the course of the year, April discovers a lot about her parents, about her boyfriend, and about her own capacities to handle her life.
