Lexi's smart, she's funny to, but she isn't one of those. The ones who get attention from guys. And one top of that, her seven-year-old sister, Makenzie, is in pageants where she gets praised by her "beauty" everyday (beauty a.k.a. tons of makeup and fake hair).She's so sick of having money wasted on pageants money that her family doesn't have. The two questions are how many loans can you take and how long can you not get noticed. This is Revenge of the Girl with the Great Personality a realistic fictional novel by Elizabeth Eulberg. Lexi is a smart girl whose weekends are always wasted in pageants with hundreds of girls who are all brats. Her mom and dad got a divorce four years ago. Her dad moved to Houston and Lexi, Makenzie, and her mom still live in Austin, Texas. The family is still trying to recover. Though Lexi has a bigger problem Logan never notices her. Who she's been crushing on for most of her life. Should she change to make him notice. This is the sort of book where Lexi fighting herself in some way to find out who she really is and what she's is capable of doing.
Theme Analysis/SPOILER !!!
I think this book was all about finding yourself, who you really are, to be yourself. That just because of someone or some guy you shouldn't change. That might of been a spoiler. Though that's what the theme of this book is. Close to the end of the book Lexi realized that Logan isn't the one. He only liked her cause of the clothes she wore and makeup not the real her.
Like when Lexi is thinking when Logan asks her out "Wait a second. Logan Reeves is asking me out. Not to coffee or to the athletic dinner as friends. He is asking me on a date. But I think he's asking Glam Lexi, not me, just Lex. This is everything I ever wanted. I've been dreaming, fantasizing, obsessing about this moment for years. And now that it's here... I don't really feel anything at all".
After thinking about it she gave Logan an answer she said "All I did over the few last weeks was kill myself to get accepted by you and your friends. And to be honest, I didn't really have fun even when I was. Maybe that's because part of me knew that I didn't belong. And you know Logan I really like you".
"You do?" He grabs my hand.
"Yeah." I take away my hand. But I like myself more. I'd rather be single and myself than to fit into a mold a person that I'm not for a guy.'' So those were some of the reasons i thought this book was to be yourself and never change. I really did enjoy this book, and if you read it I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
I like how you described everything. Like the ending.
