Something Real

Something Real | Heather Demetrios

4 posts | 10 read | 10 to read

Seventeen-year-old BonnieTM Baker has grown up on TV—she and her twelve siblings are the stars of one-time hit reality show Baker's Dozen. Since the show's cancellation, BonnieTM has tried to live a normal life, under the radar and out of the spotlight. But it's about to fall apart . . . because Baker's Dozen is going back on the air. BonnieTM's mom and the show's producers won't let her quit and soon the life that she has so carefully built for herself, with real friends (and maybe even a real boyfriend), is in danger of being destroyed by the show. BonnieTM needs to do something drastic if her life is ever going to be her own—even if it means being more exposed than ever before.Heather Demetrios' Something Real is the winner of the Susan P. Bloom PEN New England Discovery Award.

You want a dysfunctional family novel, try a stepfamily on TV with thirteen kids. Easy but heartwarming read. Yes, the picture is awful but I am out hunting coffee and I just left this book at home because I finished it. @24in48 @Litsy #24in48 #readathon #onebookdown

Something Real | Heather Demetrios

The author again blends her trademark humor in a book about serious life events . Maybe I'll see if the library has some more of her e-books for this weekend. In the meantime my favorite snack is going to the coffee shop for caffeine. š„ā•ļø¸

It's interesting how the life of Chloe/Bonnie(TM) is so not real at all. This is one of my two first books because it needs to go back to the library. š
One down, 23 to go.

Something Real by Heather Demetrius was so incredibly good I almost can't put it into words. The book's unique plot tells the story of Bonnie/Chloe Baker as she deals with the re-airing of her family's reality T.V show. With a swoon-worthy romance and self discovery, this is the perfect book!
