Realistic Fiction: It Started With a Dare
The book, It Started With a Dare by Lindsay Faith Rech is about a girl, CG Silverman, who moves to a new school and reinvents herself. Self-proclaimed nobody CG Silverman sees her move to an upscale new school as her chance to be somebody different.Her devil-may-care attitude attracts the in-clique, and before CG realizes it, a routine game of truth or dare launches her to iconic status.She struggles with juggling boys and friendships which propel her into a web of new and bigger lies until she’s in way over her head.This book does contain Adult language and underage drinking which may make this book a cautionary tale. The cover of this book goes very well with the book itself because the book is flirty and fun.This book is a quick and fun read. This book reminded me of the popular movie Mean Girls because it had similar plot. The main character, CG, is a character that is definitely relatable. The book itself is a little predictable but there were a lot of things that made me think about my younger days and smile. Overall I could see young adult females reading this book and it could be used to teach life lesson. It would also be great book to demonstrate that there are consequences for our actions.
