Alice barret. This is obviously her story. Books are always about the main characters, right? Her name is even in the title. What is her story? What happens in her story: Alice's ultimate crush is adopted by her family for various reasons (read to find out.) They become friends and fall in love. Alice, her best friend and her crush happen to be the most popular people in school. And they all live happily ever after. Not. What really happens: She hates the person getting adopted. The become friends. (If you want to know if they get together or not you will have to read the book. But they probably won't.) Alice is not popular. And it takes a whole lot of friends and challenges to get to the happily ever after. (And everything is awesome!)
