A review by srousseau
Riding the Universe by Gaby Triana

4.0

Chloe has had a rough year. Her uncle died and it is taking her a while to recover. Chemistry is not going well at all. And she is beginning to think that she should find out who her birth parents are, even though her adoptive parents are great.

The only thing that helps is to ride Lolita at night and lie on the Murphy's dock and look at the night sky. Lolita is the Harley her uncle Seth left her and she's going to lose it if she can't do something about her Chemistry grade. Gordon, a peer tutor, is supposed to help her out in Chemistry, but it doesn't seem to be working out that way.

This book is a great little book about a fairly normal teen living in Florida and how she handles her stresses. She has a supportive family, some good friends and the usual high school crowd. A good quick read.
