Isabel then helps Colie recognize her self-esteem through the rest of the book. Isabel kinda takes a liking to Colie about half way through the book, when she happens to overhear some nasty things that a girl from Colie's hometown has to say about her. While working at Last Chance, Colie watches the way that Morgan and Isabel interact and while she never had a friend like either of them before, she learns that they would do just about anything for each other. Morgan is the sweet one while Isabel is a little rougher and at times can seem just downright mean. Colie knows that while she is there for the summer that she really can't just sit around, so when she ends up at the Last Chance Bar and Grill, she meets Morgan and Isabel two best friends that have been together since at least high school.Ĭolie soon lands a job at Last Chance, and becomes somewhat friendly with Morgan and Isabel. Mira is overweight and in her world it doesn't bother her. Mira's house is strewn with items that only half work, and Mira herself seems a little off the norm. Norman and Aunt Mira turn out to be a little wierd, well wierd to most people. So Colie gets on a train and travels from Charlotte to Colby, where she is picked up by Norman, her Aunt's boarder. Colie is being shipped off to her Aunt Mira's in Colby, North Carolina.Ĭolie is only 15, so she can't really be left at home for the summer while her mother goes on tour for her fitness program. When the story really gets going you find out that Colie and her mom are both now skinny, and her mom has turned into this fitness/weightloss guru. She is remembering when both her and her mother were fat, and traveling across the country. When me first meet Colie, we are going through a flashback type thing. But since I love Sarah Dessen, I knew that if I stuck with it that it would get better.
At first I was a little put off by the book.
