2 Perspectives...1 Confusing Age

Flipped
by Wendelin Van Draanen





A boy and a girl get in arguments over stupid stuff. They don't get it. They used to be friends when they were younger. But lately, something weird is going on. A weird feeling is happening in their hearts. They are annoyed with each other, yet they want to see each other more or even spy on each other. He acts impulsively in her presence. Has this ever happened to you? Probably. That's while you will relate to the nostalgia of those simple childhood crushes as you read about Bryce and Juliana. The book is told in alternating chapters from two characters' perspectives, and the same events are told from one perspective and then FLIPPED. A sweet story.
