Flipped
by Wendelin Van Draanen

Bryce and Julianna have been across-the-street neighbors since they were in the second grade.  Juli is a dreamer, an idealist, someone who will sacrifice her life for a tree, a girl who has flipped for Bryce and his blue eyes.  Bryce is a guy who would just like for this girl to leave him alone, a guy who would like this girl to stop sniffing his hair in class, and a guy who can't understand what a girl sees in an old tree.  From the moment they met, their relationship has been one of Juli chasing and Bryce hiding.  Until now.  Until eighth grade.  But, don't take it from us!  You can hear it from both sides!  What was she thinking?  Why did he do that? 

One chapter is told by Bryce, and the next chapter retells the chapter from Juli's point of view!

Language Alert: This book contains the word "P---ed" in the band's name throughout the book.
