First line: Well, here I am again.
Why you should read this book: Brianna can't figure out why she agreed to have a bat mitzvah when she doesn't know any Hebrew and hardly even feels like she's Jewish, but she did tell her mother to sign her up and now she's stuck with her decision. But as she finds herself more and more stressed out trying to learn an entire new language while being asked to find meaning in a religion that seems increasingly at odds with her own personal worldview, she's also in between her divorced parents' disagreements, and meanwhile, her best friend seems jealous of the attention Brianna's suddenly getting from the popular girls who want in on the party of the year. Will Brianna muddle through this ceremony with her relationships intact or will she lose her parents' respect and her best friend for good?
Why you shouldn't read this book: Do you often throw up before public speaking?
