Famous in a Small Town by Emma Mills

5.0

As always, a masterpiece from Emma Mills. It's a five star read for me this time around. That's how much I enjoyed this book.
Original Review

In this book, Sophie tries to raise money for her school's marching band so they can go to the Rose parade. She tries to get a famous country star Megan Pleasant who is from her small town of Acadia to perform in the fundraiser. Obviously, this not all that happens in this book but I don't want to spoil the book for anyone. If someone asked me to tell them what this book is about, I would say it is about friendships. It is about those friends you have known for so long that they are basically family to you and the new ones you make along the way.

I am going to do a little character sketch about our group of friends. We have:

Brit: She is the crazy one. She can be brutally honest and she loves teasing people. She can say mean things sometimes but she would do anything for her friends. She is also really funny.

Dash: He is the serious one in the group. He has a good sense of humor and you can always count on him to give you a ride in his car "the cutlass".

Terrence: What can I say about him except he is the perfect example of a jolly good fellow.

Flora: She is the charmer. She is easygoing and has a very warm personality.

Sophie: And then, there's Sophie our main character. The book is told from her perspective. She is the one who loves too much. She is incredibly loyal and always committed to her friends and everything else. And she is always trying to fix things.

August: He is the new kid in town, still trying to find his place. He gets adopted by Sophie's group of friends. He is funny and even though he messes up sometimes, he is still a great guy. He is Sophie's love interest.

I think is safe to say that everyone in this book is really funny. I mean that's a given in any Emma Mills book. The friends in this book are so amazing, I wouldn't mind being friends with them in real life. It is a great feel good book that will make you laugh so hard. I loved everything about this book, it was simply amazing.
