Being A McCurthy

Fourteen year old Lily McCurthy has a lot on her shoulders. Between starting high school, juggling two jobs, caring for her mother and cousin—who both have life threatening diseases, and facing the rumors about her criminally insane father, and the reason why Hanna and Marley McCurhty don't show their faces in town anymore, Lily barely has time to think. Until she meets fifteen year old Cameron Slavin, the class clown, and Whitney hughes, a real southern belle. But when something unexpected happens Lily must choose between her new friends and rising popularity, or her old life full of bitter tears and independents.
