You go Trace!!!
I LOVED this book! It's about time a book was written that showed a strong teenage girl that doesn't care about peer pressure. Trace is a young woman who knows what she wants out of life and who will make it happen. I wish I could be more like her. I can't wait to see what Trace does next.
Pre-teens love it, Moms loves it
I bought this book for my pre-teen step-daugther, and ended up reading it myself first. What a fun story! I liked that Trace sets a good example (doesn't give in to peer pressure, etc.) without the story becoming preachy or boring. Trace is a modern young woman that sets and reaches, her goals, and is true to herself. Oh, and my step-daughter and her friends loved it too, but probably not for the same reasons.

Just ok
This was the first book by Trish Cook that I've read. It was an okay book. Most teen books I find to be really fun to read, but for some reason this book was lacking that same excitement.

Breezy, Humorous, & Fun to Read
I discovered this book from a review in the Orlando Sentinel. They describe it this way, "a Chicago-area teen grapples with boyfriend issues, trigonometry and her search for the identity of her long-lost dad."
It's written in the style of Chick Lit, meaning it is light, upbeat, modern fiction from the woman's viewpoint.
Fresh and fun!
Finally, a book for about teenage girls that isn't another spin on the "mean girl" syndrome! So
Lyrical
is fantastic--well written, funny, absorbing and, most importantly, original! Plus, it (almost) inspired me to run a marathon...Can't wait to find out what Trace does next.

A hilarious, endearing debut about a teenage girl's quest to find her long-lost father, who just may be a rock star...
Trace lives smack in the middle of picture-perfect suburban Winnetka, Illinois. But her life is anything but cookie-cutter normal. Her mom, Bebe, is a zillion years younger than the other mothers, still dresses like a teenager, and drives around town cranking time-warped tunes-not to mention the fact that she can't seem to forget that crazy summer she spent following the big-hair bands of the 1980s. She's held onto the mementos, the music, the memories...everything, except Trace's dad.
Trace can't help but wonder which outdated rocker in the autographed photos covering their walls might be her father. And that's not the only thing making her head spin like Bebe's old records. She's trying to keep her best friend from going off the deep end. She's desperate to do well in school. And then there's the hunky lead singer she's trying to snag-without following in her mother's footsteps.
