Book Description

Publication Date: April 1 2009 | Series: Candy Apple (Book 16)
Seventh grader Amy Flowers takes snooty Allington Academy by storm in this sweet, fresh, and fun Candy Apple miniseries.

Amy is making her mark at super-exclusive Allington, but there's always one thing standing in her way: the League. They rule the school, and their queen is oh-so-mean Fiona, who doesn't exactly appreciate a new girl invading her turf. This time, Amy is stuck working on a service project with preppie know-it-all Preston Harringford, and Fiona will do anything she can to make sure it's a flop.

5.0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too Oct 14 2010

Format:Paperback
It's time for Step Out, Allington Academy's annual community service project where every seventh and eleventh grader spends two weeks working for a non-profit organization.

Amy Flowers and her friends are all looking forward to it - with Mitchie, Kiwi, and Jenelle working at the Tranquility Garden, and Amy signed up for the Health On The Move Experience, which travels to different elementary schools to teach about health.

At least, Amy was looking forward to it, until she found out she was in it with annoying Preston and the Queen of Mean, Fiona.

Their supervisor, eleventh grader Anthony, is completely bossy, and Fiona starts off by refusing to do any work. Oddly enough, working with Preston turns out to be one of the best parts of the job, especially when he works with Amy to make "The Healthmobile" lessons a little more interesting. While Amy's friends start bonding over their projects, her own group is floundering, with Fiona fighting them every step of the way. When, after an argument, a surprising experience brings Amy and Fiona together, Amy has to wonder whether Fiona's sudden change of heart is for real...or just another one of her nasty schemes.

I haven't read the first two books in this series, but I had no problem falling right into this story and enjoying the characters. They're quirky and real without being stereotypical, and you can easily sense the history between them.

I bought it used, but the quality was definitely acceptable. It was a great read for my daughter and a great addition to her collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars For middle school girls Sep 1 2009
By J. Grambo - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Life for a seventh grader sure has its ups and downs. For Amy Flowers, the ups include great girlfriends and a few guy friends, too. The downs are all the messes she gets herself into, and of course, some catty opposition from ultra-rich Fiona and her followers.

The seventh grade community service project is looming, and Amy chooses to volunteer for the elementary school health education program. It doesn't hurt anything that Anthony, the tall, smiling boy leading the group, is serious hotness. Bus as it happens, drop-dead looks don't mean drop-dead niceness, and Anthony looks less and less dreamy the more he criticizes Amy and the other volunteers.

Weaving the ups and downs of relationships, the author is right on target with the voice, awkwardness, embarrassments and concerns of 7th grade girls. Well done.
