Book Genre: Realistic Fiction Summary: Charlie "Charlene" Dean is very, very fashion obsessed. Every day she assesses her outfit. She designs her own fashions. She even dreams of having her own company. So when she hears about the new theme for the Green Pastures Scholarship contest, she is more exited than ever before. Because the theme is fashion, and the grand prize is one free scholarship to get into Green Pastures, the design college of her dreams. John Thomas-Smith is a teenage boy who is more interested in metalworking, so he was disappointed when he saw the theme for the Green Pastures Scholarship contest. But, seeing this as an opportunity to get a free scholarship, he signs up, too. Now, with everything at stake, the competition gets tense. Like every other contest, there can only be one winner. Who will win? Personal Review: I liked this book a lot. Though it includes some crude language (from John's side, mainly), the final products that Charlie and John come up with are incredible. They are, hands down, pieces of art. I've sewed stuff before, but I don't know if anything I have ever made was worthy of the work the characters did at the end. This is definitely a must-read for all (mature) readers! Recommendation: I would recommend this book for people who like realistic fiction, who like fashion, and people who are mature readers. Some of the stuff John says is inappropriate for the budding reader. Other than that, this book can be open to pretty much anyone! Click here for an Amazon review and a chance to buy this book!
