This is #8. But this time the series doesn't live up to their namesake- why? The characters are not in Morganville anymore. They are "out there." With Oliver as their escort, the whole gang goeas on a road trip to start Michael's career as a muscian. They can deal with Morganville. Can they deal with the world outside?
This one was much better than the last one. It was nice to have one of the books that changed the setting every chapter instead of having them always be in Morganville, Texas. The beginning was all teen-sickly- whatever nonsense- then it got to the good parts when they left town. One thing they forgot, however, or maybe I missed a whole page was that Claire never asked Shane to come home for dinner, nor did she get a straight premission from her parents that she could go to Dallas. The entire conversation was ignored the whole book. When they were stopped at the ice cream store, the polcie found Claire and Shane in the back seat making out. The whole scene puts it in prespective that she's still underage- I guess I forgot. It also puts you straight that Michael need to be much more careful where he puts his cooler. Shane doesn't know the joy of ice cream and Eve has had way too much sugar. There are more books for me, but I'm not quite giving up on these series yet.
