Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have)

2 girls + 3 guys + 1 house parents = 10 things April and her friends did that they (definitely, maybe, probably) shouldn't have.If given the opportunity, what sixteen-year-old wouldn't jump at the chance to move in with a friend and live parent-free? Although maybe ",opportunity", isn't the right word, since April had to tell her dad a tiny little untruth to make it happen (see #1: ",Lied to Our Parents",). But she and her housemate Vi are totally responsible and able to take care of themselves. How they ended up ",Skipping School", (#3), ",Throwing a Crazy Party", (#8), ",Buying a Hot Tub", (#4), and, um, ",Harboring a Fugitive", (#7) at all is kind of a mystery to them.In this hilarious and bittersweet tale, Sarah Mlynowski mines the heart and mind of a girl on her own for the first time. To get through the year, April will have to juggle a love triangle, learn to do her own laundry, and accept that her carefully constructed world just might be falling apart . . . one thing-she-shouldn't-have-done at a time.
