GOODREADS SUMMARY
Effie has a million reasons why she's not thrilled to be at her sister's wedding -- and the monstrously pink bridesmaid's dress isn't even on the list. When Effie finds herself locked in the bathroom, she thinks she might just stay there. After all, it's better than hearing from her mom about how often she's been to the buffet or how beautiful Ophelia looks in her wedding dress.
In this hysterical young adult short story, Effie will have to find a reason to celebrate... or get used to her porcelain throne.
REVIEW
Effie makes lists. Not only that, but her lists are hilarious. Effie also has a talent for thinking up the most ridiculous reasons why she is right. Like the saying goes, I think she could argue with a brick wall.
Here are some lists of my own.
