Fancy White Trash by Marjetta Geerling


This book was absolutely hilarious. I found myself thinking that I couldn't believe a book could be so far out and yet so believable. Abby is 15 and lives with her two older sisters, her niece (daughter of oldest sister), her mom and Guitar Player (mom's new husband). All of a sudden Mom announces that she is pregnant. Oh, I also forgot to mention that middle sister is also 8 months pregnant (by Guitar Player, but before he was married to her mom). And possibly older sister is preggers too? So, Abby has come up with the One True Love Plan to keep her from ending up like the rest of her family. She is assisted in this major quest by her best friend, the boy next door who is adamantly trying to insist he's not gay. All in all, a very fun book. Aimed to teens, but great for adults too.
