My Mother Is a French Fry and Further Proof of My Fuzzed-Up Life Book

While the title of this book may seem a bit unconventional, the story within is an emotional adventure that is worth reading for anyone. Our main character, 15-year-old Eli Smyth, seems to be a pretty average teenage girl from the outside. She is horribly embarrassed by her mother, who insists on working at Burgers n' Frize dressed as a giant foam french fry. This embarrassment, along with some other hidden feelings that Eli doesn't discover until later, put quite a strain on Eli's relationship with her mother. If her mother's job didn't already cause her enough embarrassment, she decides to go and get pregnant on top of it. To Eli, pregnancy is not only the most disgusting thing ever, but it is also more embarrassing than any job her mother could ever have. Outside of the craziness at home, Eli has both a best friend, and a love interest who ends up becoming her boyfriend. Between these two, and her best friend's super-cool dads, they help Eli begin to see how deep the issues with her mother truly run. It is an emotional rollercoaster, from embarrassment, anger, and frustration to sadness, guilt, and fear. The crazy lives of the main characters are sure to pull you in and leave you wanting to read more every time you close the book. The challenges they face and the feelings they feel are incredibly relatable, and the most emotional moments of the book will definitely pull on your heartstrings.

While the storyline of this book is certainly a compelling reason to read it, the excellent writing of Colleen Sydor is another. She manages to convey both the hidden and the obvious feelings of the characters in a way that readers can easily understand. She helps readers to truly connect and relate to the characters and the struggles that they face. She simplifies the complex storyline so it is not difficult to follow, yet ensures that all of the important content comes across clearly. In addition to excellent writing, Colleen Sydor also ensures that the book appeals to a very diverse audience. The book actually has multiple storylines, focusing on the struggles and emotions that come with family, friendship, romance, and more. All of the different storylines connect with one another and merge together to create an emotional, yet wonderful ending.
