What if... Everyone Knew Your Name

What If . . . Everyone Knew Your Name (Choose Your Destiny Series) by Liz Ruckdeschel: Book Cover I absolutely love this book! Choose your own destiny books are always a personal favorite of mines. And it's been FOREVER since someone has made another choose your destiny book so I have to give the authors of this book some praise. And since it's been so long since I read a book like this (I think the last time I read a choose your own destiny book was like back in 2001) I liked this book even more because it brought up memories of when I used to reading choose your own destiny books and how excited I would get to see the outcome of my choice. And I started reading this book immediately because I couldn't wait to feel that excitement again.
A fifteen year old named Haley Miller with an average weight and height, but a below average sense of style just moved from her old, embarrassing home in California to her new, exciting house in the suburbs of New Jersey where she will be attending public school for the first time ever. With so much going on, she faces many choices and YOU will be the one that gets to make the decision! If you read about her and don't seem to like her, make her life miserable! If you think she should catch a break, throw her a bone every once and a while. If you like the way she sounds, make her life perfect! IT'S ALL UP TO YOU!
