Annemarie Wilcox, or Shug as her family calls her describes life as she knows it as a twelve-year old, how everything that was once so simple, is now so complicated. Mark, her best friend, secret crush, and the guy she has known forever isn’t acting like a best friend anymore. He betrayed her; he left Annemarie for his guy friends. Annemarie is the kind of girl that tries to hang out with the cool girls, even though she knows that they don’t like her. Elaine, Shugs girl best friend just got a boyfriend Hugh, that’s all she ever thinks about, Elaine doesn’t pay attention to Annemarie anymore because she is too busy with Hugh.
Now Annemarie doesn’t have anyone, she doesn’t feel accepted, she feels ugly, she thinks no one likes her. But that isn’t true; Jack Conley secretly admires Annemarie even though he makes fun of her every day. The end of summer is where her life changes, she realizes that she doesn’t need a jerk like Mark and Annemarie falls in love with Jack Conley after he kisses her. After that, she notices that maybe, just maybe being an average twelve year old girl isn’t really that bad and now she feels beautiful for once.
