Diary Queen

ANIME PICTURE OF THE DAY
Honey Hunt!
HIIIII
I just finished a novel I was reading called Diary Queen and I really enjoyed it! I have to admit when I first picked up the book I thought it was going to be a funny story about some girl with a weight problem.... But once I started reading it I found out it was actually about a 15-year-old girl named Darlene Joyce (D.J.) Schwenk, who lives on a farm in Red Bend, Wisconsin. During the summer, she is pressured into training a stubborn football player named Brian Nelson. Eventually, they become friends, and D.J. develops romantic feelings towards Brian. Part of DJ's struggle is that she has once been a star athlete in volleyball and basketball. When her father hurts his hip, she has to take over all the responsibilities of running their dairy farm. Her only hopes of college have been sports scholarships, and when she is forced to quit in order to run the farm, she starts slacking in school. It turned out to be a really good novel I couldn't put it down I ended up reading over 160 pages in one day and that's a lot for me because I am a very slow reader! I definitely recommend this book :D
