Front and Center by Catherine Gilbert Murdock


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
So this was the last of the Dairy Queen books as far as I know. I loved it too!! This one is still in D.J.'s Junior year of High School. It is called front and center because D.J. starts to get WAY more attention than she ever wanted in her life with Boys, School, Colleges, even her family. It stresses her out for most of the book. D.J. discovers that Beaner, who she thought was just a friend, wants to be more. And she discovers that her mind is not yet ready to be done thinking about Brian. Win, her high school basketball coach, and college coachs start to put on the pressure for DJ to become the assertive player she could be (and cant get herself to become until her friend Ashley's Suggestion). Both D.J. and Brian have learned a lot about themselves and their families through the course of the three books and it is all kind of accumulated in this last one. I absolutely Love D.J. and all of the characters and am pretty sad that it is done, but it was quite an uplifting, eye-opening, and fun coming of age story that is very easy to relate to! So fun! 254 Pages. 3/3 Dairy Queen Books.
