Book Review: Is Charlotte seeking justice--or revenge?
Summary: 4 Stars
What happens when the ugly duckling becomes a swan? Is life really "happily ever after"? High school senior Charlotte is tall, green-eyed, and glamorous, but she's still haunted by the gawky girl she was in sixth grade, complete with glasses and braces. And now her best friend, Brianna, is dating the boy whose bullying once made Charlotte's life miserable.
When Charlotte spots Bryant, the former bully, with another girl at the mall, she tries to warn Brianna of his two-timing. Brianna, however, doesn't want to hear a word against her boyfriend. To complicate matters, Bryant's best friend Colton, a gorgeous, wealthy, and sophisticated star of the school wrestling team, seems interested in Charlotte--or is he just trying to distract her from exposing Bryant?
The book is funny. Charlotte's quixotic quest to reveal Bryant's duplicity results in wacky situations from a sticky fruit disaster at a posh country club party to a fire sprinkler soaking at her high school Christmas dance. And then there's the faux-fur-and-jingle-bells elf costume she sports at the mall. . . .
Skillful writing gives the reader good reason to wonder how reliable Charlotte's version of events really is. Clearly she's good-hearted: when she catches a little boy trying to shoplift a pair of work shoes for his waitress mother from Bloomingdales, where Charlotte works, she lectures him about stealing, then buys the shoes herself and lets him earn them from her by picking up trash in the mall. Her dealings with her friends, however, might be considered much less generous. Is Charlotte seeking justice--or revenge?
Beauty and grace are both outer and inner qualities. Readers will watch with hearty laughter and even some eye-rolling as Charlotte, through trial and error, figures that out. A lighthearted read with lingering value, It's a Mall World delivers both humor and insight.
