Book Description

Feb 1999
Fifteen-vear-old Sage Olivar is writing a Romance novel-with a capital "R." The book's heroine, Angelica, is Sage's ideal
wornan-sensitive, strong, and sexy. There is only one small problem with Sage's novel-it's absolutely dreadful!

Enter George, Sage's would-be boyfriend and unwilling reader of Angelica stories. When she decides to enter her masterpiece in the school writing contest, George is frantic. How can he save Sage from public humiliation?

Told in chapters alternating Sage's and George's point of view, this hilarious story is also a nuanced portrait of teenagers trying to make sense of their feelings and relationships.


From the Trade Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Romance and Love 1 Jun 2002
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Imagine waking up to a mother who is a writer. You love writing. Wouldn't it be great if you love writing and your mother is a writer? Having your first real kiss. Writing a romance novel with Angelica as the star and her one-eyed lover where ever she goes. What a great life! This is a great book if you want to be a writer and love romance novels and you just love reading.
Sage is a fifteen-year old girl who loves writing a lot. Sometimes her work doesn't always turn out right. Doesn't catch a person to make them want to keep on reading thinking of what well happen next. Don't get me wrong. Sage is a good writer, and she won the writing contest with George, her beloved lover. It was supposed to be a romance novel, not a hilarious one and everyone thinks it is hilarious that's why she won. Sage has made it not a hilarious novel because it's supposed to be about a woman who lost her husband. Now likes a one-eyed man that she see everywhere she goes.
You can tell Sage really likes writing. Since Sage has wrote more than 15 chapters in her novel. I know it's not long to some people but it is to her she has actually wrote non stop. Her writing is good, but she needs to read it over, giving other people a chance to tell her what she has did wrong. Not always say you love it don't you. Is it boring, does she get them into it. All of things she should think about first.
Sage has always had a big crush on George, never really admitted it to him, but you can tell she likes him. She pulled him out of a tree and kissed him, when they were younger. When Sage was younger that was the girls favorite game to play. Now she's doing it again, kissing George. She will likely go out with George. Likely marry him.
Sage has had some problems in the past, and now she knows what she did wrong in her writing, in her love life. I think when she gets older she will be a great writer someday just like her mother. Maybe not dress and do the weird things her mother does to get her writing the best. Since she will figure out what she has done wrong by then. Since Sage likes writing so much and George will always be her one-eyed lover and be by her side in the end.
Sage is a good writer. She likes writing. She likes George. She will become a great writer. In all of this, this is a great book about romance and writing. This will be a great book for someone who loves romance, writing, reading, and even to get tips on love and dating. 1

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Novel Ever Written 6 May 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This is a totally hilarious book. I loved Sage's novel because it showed me why romance writing gets on my nerves sometimes. I also liked George. He's not a typical guy hero, certainly not one that Sage would write about. But he's very, very nice and perfect for Sage. I think if I ever wrote something really bad I'd want someone to tell me, too. I love everything Carol Lynch Williams writes, but this book is my absolute favorite.
5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing other than Awesome! 30 Jan 2005
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
My Angelica is a very descriptive and fun book of a young teenage love. Sage and George are the main characters, and they secretly love each other without knowing it! Through these hilarious chapters, everything seems to pull together perfectly. I highly recommend it to people who enjoy a mix of comedy and romance. It is so beautifully written, and who doesn't like a good laugh once in a while?
