Perfect You Review 06 October, 2008 In Perfect You, I found the plot to be very unrealistic and for the most part not very relatable. Through out the book, it annoyed me how Kate always thought the worst scenario possible, needless to say she had very low self esteem and confidence. Seeing how she lost her best friend who is now popular and acts like she doesn't know her I might be able to see why she does. Kate's dad was also was a bit annoying, his thinking and inconsideration to his family was ridiculous. Towards the ending of the book though it picked up and was better than the first half. Kate began to realize things could be possible with a positive attitude and outlook. I think the theme of this was to believe in yourself and to not let life's obstacles keep you down.

Perfect Book:) 31 July, 2008 I absolutely fell in love with this book. It was so cute and heart felt and funny.
Okay, the narrator of this story, Kate Brown has been having a sucky year. Her best friend got a new look and dumped her for new friends, popularity, and a hot boyfriend. Her brother is moving back in, and then her dad quits his job to sell Perfect You vitamins and her sassy tongued grandmother comes to live with them indefinitely. And to top it all off, Will Miller, the "King of hook-ups", takes an interest in her and starts to talk to her. Kate acts like she hates the guy but she actually has a crush on him, but is too stubborn to admit it.
Then later in the book, her parents' relationship is strained, her ex-best friend is talking to her again, but is she really trying to be friends again? AND then Will asks her out, and she doesn't know what to believe anymore.
Anyways, this book was about how changes can be a good experience for you and that it won't necessarily ruin your life.

Perfect You Is Amazing 23 November, 2008 Really amazing story. Kate can't seem to let good things into her life when everything has just been going down the tubes. Little does she know that once she does let something in, things will work out for her. I loved it.

Somewhat Perfect 3.5 Stars 13 September, 2008 This book was okay for me. It was entertaining, but I became a little frustrated with Kate's low self-esteem, her dad's childish behavior and her mother's acceptance of it, risking her family's security.
Surprising to me, one of my favorite character's was will, Kate's love interest. I really liked his personality, better than Kate's.
Overall this book was okay. I didn't mind reading it and it did keep my interest. It was fast reading, though the issues, not so lighthearted.
Another surprise, the grandma, who's made out to be sort of monstrous, was indeed not a great person, but she was right on the money with her thoughts about her daughter's choices and the loser husband she picked and stayed with.
