IT'S A MALL WORLD AFTER ALL by Janette Rallison book review

It's a Mall World After All by Janette Rallison

 It's too bad they don't give out diplomas for what you learn at the mall, because I could graduate with honors in that subject. No really. Since I've worked there, I've become an expert on all things shopping-related. For example, I can tell you right off who to distrust at the mall:

1) Skinny people who work at Cinnabon. I mean, if they're not eating the stuff they sell, how good can it be?

2) The salesladies at department store makeup counters. No matter what they tell you, buying all that lip gloss will not make you look like the pouty models in the store posters.

3) And most importantly—my best friend's boyfriend, Bryant, who showed up at the food court with a mysterious blonde draped on his arm.

Yeah, I saw it, and yeah, I told my best friend all about it.

You would think this would mean trouble for Bryant, but you would basically be wrong. Somehow, the evil boyfriend turned everything around, and now I'm the one who has to prove myself! But I will. Even if Bryant—and more importantly his best friend, Colton—keep trying to stop me.



What a fun book! I laughed out loud numerous times! I finished this book around 11:30 PM and tried to laugh quietly, which shook the bed and woke my husband anyway.

The story is about Charlotte who was teased in jr. high and is still smarting from the teasing in high school. Her family moved away for a few years and when Charlotte moves back she is hot. But she takes revenge out on the boys in her school and refuses to date any of them.
Charlotte works in the mall and sees her best friends boyfriend flirting with a girl from another school. Like any best friend, Charlotte tattles and this leads to many hilarious scenes.
Good messages about holding grudges, being a snob, and why you shouldn't use bunson burners to heat cider
