Kate is 14 and thinks she's the biggest nurd in her class. Tully has moved into the house across the street from Kate and is trying to hide the fact that her mom is a pot head and totally out of it as a mother and a person. Kate thinks Tully is the most beautiful girl she has ever seen. It is the mid 70s and this unlikely duo become best friends. The story follows them through high school and on to college through dating and other life experiences always being there for each other. As their life proceeds they take seperate paths but are always there for each other as well as jealous of each other at the same time. The characters in the book are great, the story is both humorous and sad. If you lived through the 70's, 80's, 90's and 2000-11 you will relate to much that goes on in this story. I rate it as one of the best books I've ever read.
