At her friend Tashy's wedding, Flora's boyfriend is about to propose and she realizes her life isn't what she thought it would be. Flora makes a wish to go back to age 16 while Tashy is cutting the cake. The next day, she wakes up and she's gone back a few weeks in time and she's 16 again. She tries to figure out what to do and whether to stay 16 or go back to 32. One thing that bothered me, though, is that the back cover and discussion questions say the character's name is Sashy, not Tashy. It's totally random! I liked the story though. I'm surprised she never told her 16 year old best friend what was going on though. I think she should have tried to offer some explanation to her. Oh well.
