Didn't quite hold up for me on this read-around. The voices did feel very middle-grade which is good, but some of the conversations just felt a little too adult/strange. And the book was, inevitably, a little dated.

"Who Put That Hair in My Toothbrush? Sibling rivalry at its finest! Whether it's on the hockey ice, at school, or at home, Greg and Megin just can't seem to get along. She calls him Grosso, he calls her Megamouth. They battle with donuts, cockroaches, and hair. Will it take a tragedy for them to realize how much they actually care for each other?" (From Amazon)

I really enjoyed this humourous novel as a kid.

My daughter read this for school and then she gave it to me to read.
Probably 2.5 stars but I just can't make myself give this 3 stars so I'll round down a little.

Alternating chapters from the point of view of two siblings who don't get along.

It was just boring. I didn't care about any of their fights or problems or family situation. I'm not the target audience and I understand that.

A great book about the love/hate relationship between a brother and a sister. A really good ending.

This was a funny book that I had been wanting to read because a while back I started reading it but then I just stopped. I choose to re read the beginning and finally finish it! I loved Megan as a character she was a real spit fire! I loved reading her chapter but for her older brother Greg not so much! He was very immature and I hated how he treated Sara in the beginning of the book! Sara deserved better!

It was okay I think. It wasn't the best Jerry Spinelli ever. It was actually quite an enthralling story. There was sibling rivalry, the classic eighties California craze (what is with that?), romance, a death, and an egg.
It's good for school libraries and a nice, easy read that does contain some topics that seemed a little iffy for younger kids but was otherwise pretty good.
