    Alice is finishing up her junior year and things couldn’t be brighter for her:  Patrick asked her to his prom, she is now
    features editor of the school newspaper, and she’s getting along better with her stepmother.  Life is good!

    Scott, her secret crush, agrees to go to the Sadie Hawkins dance with her.  Patrick remains close to her heart,
    though she isn’t quite sure what their relationship truly is.  Her friends are busy, too, with school and boys.  Alice
    starts to feel like
    she’s always there rooting for them, but where are they when she needs them?  It takes a pregnancy test to bring the
    friends together again.

    This is the twenty-third book in the ALICE series.  Reading an ALICE book is like catching up with an old friend.  
    I’ve been a loyal fan for several years and wait anxiously for the next book to come out each time!  If you are a new
    reader to the series, it would be easy to start with this book and read the others in the future.
