Summary: Fourteen-year-old Ricki Jo, a Kentucky farm girl, learns that popularity is not all she hoped it would be when the huge changes she makes in her personality and style seem to do more to drive away old friends than to win new ones.
A new school - high school - Ricki Jo decides that she needs to change her image and be called Erika. Homecoming - Friends - Boyfriends? Ricki Jo is a believable character who made me laugh and want to cry. Themes of friendship, family, and being true to yourself are the undercurrents of this book that is able to make the South come alive.
