Dez is unusually neat. Her mom and dad are unusually messy. They like Cheez Whiz and swamps. Dez likes elegant food and grand pianos. How can she even be related to them? And how can Dez help her best friend, Jil, who's adopted and who will stop at nothing in order to meet her birth mom? What is it, exactly, that makes a parent "real," anyway? Get Real is about wanting a parent who is very different from the one you have. It's about discovering, "Who am I?"

Get Real
Teen reading challenge. A book about opening an adoption that includes no sense of what real open adoptions are often like (I mean, the girl's adoptive parents just start letting her spend every weekend an hour away with the first mom they'd kept her from knowing and nobody seems bothered or thinks therapy or something might be in order?). Other parts were equally unrealistic, including the poetry-quoting dad, who was totally unlike any classicist I've ever known and didn't even seem to have his Homeric epithets right. But it's not poorly written or anything. Teens could probably like it. I just don't.
