Any way you slice it you are amazing7/22/2023 Something to call her own.Ĭue the towns bad boy, Jake with a dare that involves holding a hockey stick and Penelope is hooked. Slice is the best pizza house around and Penelope is already dedicated to helping out. Penelope's dad has his own sights set on her future and wants her to continue the family legacy. Penelope loves to Ice skate, but her overprotective father forbids her to entertain the idea of playing hockey. This book ticked all the right boxes for me. Any way you slice it reads like a movie and I loved every minute of it. What a perfect slice of pie or should I say pizza. And if you're a parent? This is a MUST for your kids! I recommend Pen's adventures for readers who wants to be encouraged to chase her own dreams. I still don't know whether I should sing or crave for pizza whenever I read this title but one thing I know though is that I truly enjoyed reading it. Kristine just made me care for all of them. I love how realistic Pen's relationship is to her family and even to her bestfriend who is so hilarious btw! I like the pizza place that they have and even their crew. I can't help but feel like I was inside the book. And I was rooting for her the whole time. The urge to cheer for Pen cannot be ignored. I was not a fan back then but because of the glimpses that Kristen Asselin showed us when it comes to Hockey really caught my attention. I am impressed too and very much intrigued now with Hockey because of this book. The characters are young and the level of their intimacy is just perfect! The love interest has his own issues that needs to be dealt with and it was great that it was tackled accordingly. Not really my usual cuppa since I enjoy the NA/A Romance more but I still enjoyed it. I'm sure you will too no matter what your age is. And as a teenager myself, I understand her. Sure, there are a lot of lies and sneaking around that happened but it was great how she realized how bad that was. I was touched by how much persistent she can be. Maybe because I've been in her situation but Kristine Asselin really wrote a believable teenager who is struggling to make her own dreams happen. It was amazing how much I relate to Penelope. Her parents have a different idea for her when it comes to the career she'll be pursuing. So why am I saying this? Its because of our main character's situation. But as much as they love us- there are still some unavoidable agreements that bounds to happen. I love that they have our best interest in their hearts. I like that while it's cute and adorable it also deals with serious and important stuff. This book has 'adorable' written all over it.
