Book Description Getting away with murder was easy — facing pregnancy is going to be hell! Over spring break, seventh-grader Janie Bakersfield has her first experiment with sex — with class heartthrob Billy Kerns. When she ends up pregnant, will Janie be able to hide it from her parents until she can get an abortion? Will Billy Kerns stop ignoring her if she gets rid of that life inside of her? When word gets out, Janie tries to convince everyone in Vassey Heights that it was an immaculate conception. Twin sister Lindsey, on the other hand, has a simpler set of problems: the grand queen of the Sun Rays won't treat her with respect. As the newest member of Vassey Heights Junior High's secret society, Lindsey is forced to put up with Tina Royer's pettiness and arrogance. If Lindsey goes behind her back to turn the rest of the Sun Rays against Tina, will they follow? In the second installment of his Sweet Girls series, author Donovan Baker continues combining typical juvenile themes — teen pregnancy and conceited peers, in this case — and using them to hold up a mirror on the savagery of human life. It may be Janie's Huge Mistake, but it won't be yours! I apologize for the poor crafting of that pun. |
