This whole book bugged me so freaking much. Instead of being pissed, the daughter is super psyched about this violation - woohoo mom! Thanks for literally forcing me to abide by your expectations. So, as painful as it was to read the over-the-top awkward adoration aimed towards the mother, at least Annabel gains understanding and insight.Īnd what is her mother doing while in Annabel's body? Getting a makeover, getting a haircut, buying fashionable clothes - aka actually changing all those little things she's been nagging her daughter to do for years. Only when Annabel actually tries to do all the things her mother does - like laundry and other grownup stuff.she comes to the realization that while her mother might not have the most glamorous life but she is a superhero and a saint through and through. Her mom has such a hot bod (yes, that was an actual observation of Annabel) and the coolest life - Annabel just knows she will have the time of her life. Instead, she decides to spend her teen years with unkempt hair and terrible clothes.Īfter one particularly awful fight, her mother does a little bit of behind-the-scenes magic and Annabel wakes up in her mother's body - she is delighted! Annabel (the greasy-haired, fashion-missing daughter) is absolutely in love - like horribly, painfully cringe-worthy hero worship love - with her mother's life.īut, like most teenagers.she never listens to her mother's sage advice, gentle chastises and constructive criticism.
