Absolutely Normal Chaos by Sharon Creech

This book wasn't one of those books that keep you on your toes page after page, but it was one that kept your interest and intrigued you throughout. Absolutely Normal Chaos was about a girl named Mary Lou Finney who thought she was going to have just an ordinary summer, but waht she received was an unexpected surprise. The story is written to where you are reading her journal for a school assignment, but her summer gets so hectic that she doesn't even want her teacher to read it! I liked this book a lot!
