Pudge Wilson just had a terrific dream. She was just named "Miss Beautiful, Popular and Very Well-Built USA." But then, the worst happens--she wakes up. And now she sits staring at the reality of her miror: braces, freckles, fly-away red hair, glasses and baby fat that won't melt away. She can't even get anyone to quit calling her by that little kid nickname.
"If God loves me," she asks, staring at her reflection, "why didn't He make me beautiful?" What she doesn't know is that in a moment, she'll meet a very weird angel named Raphael--Ralph for short--a guardian of StarLIFE. She'll also meet Slick, an agent of DarkLIFE. Both claim to have the power to give her everything she wants. Each is able to give her an entirely different perspective in life and beauty. The test is on. And the big question is: Who will give her what she wants--and will she really want it once she gets it? Pudge is about to experience the wildest, craziest, most eye-opening two days of her entire life. She'll have the whole world to choose from--and whatever she chooses will change the rest of her life forever.
