This is my first time to read about Effie. This was really short that I was not able to relate or connect to any of the characters especially Effie. This is definitely not a stand alone story. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. Reviewed by: AngieBook provided by: contest win at Library Thing Review originally posted at Romancing the Book I wish I’d done some checking on this bookella when I requested it; had I known there were others in the series, I would have gotten those so as to be able to get to know the writer and Effie. Though it may seem as if you blink and suddenly find yourself at the end, Effie tugs at your heart. She’s endearingly quirky and awkward – and completely heartbroken that she’ll be losing her sister to married life. If you have a teenage girl in your life who has an ereader and wants some light reading, I recommend getting her as many of the e-books as possible. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. A cute, funny, yet touching short story about a teenage girl who is unhappy with her lot in life. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. This is a quick read about a teenage girl experiencing angst, as many teenagers tend to do. She is confused about the direction her life is going to as she watches her sister get married. I could easily see her as a character that most teens (and some adults) could relate to. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Tracy Marchini has created the perfect voice for Effie. She rings true as a young girl who is slightly self-centered (okay maybe sometimes a lot) and doesn't want to loose her sister to someone new. Effie's snark is hilarious, and the way she shares her reasons for things with the reader is in the form of lists. It is truly these lists that make this book. Effie's lists range from things dealing with herself, to dealing with other people, and each of them is giggle worthy. Her reactions to things and people are hilarious as well. While Effie may be a young girl, looking at things through her eyes is brutally honest in the best way possible.
This is a short story, but Marchini manages to bring a character and her surroundings to life almost instantly. It needs to be said, that as far as short stories go, this is a gem! Tracy Marchini has created a character who is lovable, adorable, and downright hilarious. I'm not going to lie, I got to the end of this wishing that there was more Effie and more wedding. Too cute! If you're in need of a quick read, and a lot of giggles, give this story a try. You'll definitely get both. ( )
