Nobody,Somebody,Anybody by Kelly McClorey

You know how when you tell a little fib and it keeps getting bigger and bigger til it takes on a life of its own? Amy is like that little fib. She is working hard at her summer job as a chambermaid at a resort until she takes her final test and becomes her lifelong passion - an EMT. The only problem with that is Amy freaks herself out on tests and this is her last chance so she tells everyone (including herself) that she has passed complete with a forged letter and uniform. She befriends her lonely landlord who is testing recipes out on Amy in anticipation of the arrival of his Russian mail-order bride but every kind gesture or friendship gets taken out of context leaving Amy more confused and off kilter than before. Quirky Amy is a Pippi Longstocking kind of character who seems able to reinvent herself at a moments notice and although I found myself shaking my head at the things she did, I still was rooting for her success. This debut has a priceless cover that I wanted to frame!  4 stars
