Deenie

It’s pretty good but I just think that it has a similar plot to Are You There God It’s Me Margret?  Just that deenie has scoliosis. I did like the end at the party when buddy asks her if she can take of her brace when they are kissing and she says no and I thought that it was like a good end because at the beginning she was like no way am I wearing this

I think I would have enjoyed this book a lot more if I read it in middle school. However, it took me only 30 minutes to read and was rather disappointing. But I could see a younger audience loving it.

A thirteen-year-old girl seemingly destined for a modeling career finds she has a deformation of the spine called scoliosis.

Deenie wasn't entirely against being a model, but her mother's insistence and all the nagging about her posture were a bore. Deenie liked being pretty--ugly things like hunchbacks and bad cases of eczema repelled her--and she liked being attractive to boys, especially Buddy Brader. She wanted to be a cheerleader, too, but it was the posture thing again! Was she going to have to walk around with books on her head forever? Then her posture problem really got out of hand. After all the doctors and all the examinations, it had a new name, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, and it meant that Deenie would now have to wear a brace from her neck down to her hips for four years--or longer.
