I guess you would call this teen literature. However I am NOT a teen and enjoyed it. Virginia Shreves is the youngest of 3 children. Her parents are over-achievers and fit. Her brother and sister are both good looking and thin. Virginia is not. The book deals with how she learns to accept herself for who she is and, in doing so, gets her family to accept her as well. A family crisis brings them closer. I thought it was well written and deals with issues without getting "preachy" about it. The characters are good.
