Rock Bottom Girl

Kaitlin Slaughter

the word “wink” was used a million times, but i can over look that

Marley Cicero has come home to move in with her parents because she is broke, with no job, and a recently ended relationship.  With an infamous homecoming incident still haunting her past and her high school nemesis living in a mansion next door, Marley doesn't know what she is going to do with her life.  When she is forced to take a job as PE teacher and girls' soccer coach in the same miserable high school with her nemesis and her former crush, Marley believes she has hit rock bottom. 

Rock Bottom Girl is a fun story about a woman who doesn't believe that her life has mattered.  While there are many hilarious situations and lots of witty, sarcastic dialogue, there are also some heavy, emotional moments.  The story tackles some obstacles that make high school tough for adolescents and teachers alike and offers advice on how to overcome them.  Marley's character is well developed, but she spends too much time with negative internal monologues and a lack of belief in herself.  Jake's character is also well developed and his cockiness somehow makes him more loveable.  The supporting characters are quirky and entertaining.  Overall, Rock Bottom Girl is an enjoyable story that addresses some serious topics.

I constantly recommend this book to people. When I first read it I related to it so much and it gave me hope. It’s such a wholesome but cute book. The fact that you can feel your lowest yet find your way back up is the best take away from this.
