This is just an awesome book! I thought it was cool how she included a bunch of flash backs from when before Amara was born and everything leading up to when the story happened. All I can say is WOW!! This is one of my favorite books!

Raina can't wait to be a big sister. But once Amara is born, things aren't quite how she expected them to be. Amara is cute, but she's also a cranky, grouchy baby, and mostly prefers to play by herself. Their relationship doesn't improve much over the years, but when a baby brother enters the picture and later, something doesn't seem right between their parents, they realize they must figure out how to get along. They are sisters, after all.
Raina uses her signature humor and charm in both present-day narrative and perfectly placed flashbacks to tell the story of her relationship with her sister, which unfolds during the course of a road trip from their home in San Francisco to a family reunion in Colorado.

RAINA IS GOING ON A ROAD TRIP!!! The problem is that she can't get along with her sister, but by the end they have just a great time together!!
because it is funny and I like it because I love sisters and all of the other books by the same author.
This book follows Raina's relationship with her sister, Amara. She approaches high school and goes on a road trip with her brother and sister from California to Colorado. Amara wants Raina's hidden colored pencils, she has to suffer a trip in the car with a snake Amara lost, and they never get along. Will this story have a happy ending? read to find out!
I love this book because in it Raina and her sister Amara never got along but at the end of their road trip they actually found out that it was not nessasary to fight all the time
I love this book! I can relate to Raina in a lot of ways! i love that. I have read this book about 15 times already and i have only had it for about 2 years
another great raina telgemier book!this one is an autobiography about her and her sister, Tamara! i really liked how she and Tamara became closer towards the end of the book, especially after the car broke down.
