Livvie isnâ€™t superstitious like her best friend, Joyce, who thinks everything is bad luck. So Livvie isnâ€™t worried about tearing up the chain letter and throwing it awayâ€“until sheâ€™s humiliated in gym class, falls down her back stairs, ,and, gets invited to Thanksgiving dinner at Peter Finchâ€™s house. Peterâ€™s dad has crooked teeth, a plastic wonderland in his front yard, and some kind of secret up in his study. There is no way Livvie wants Phil Finch to date her mom.,But itâ€™s hard work keeping their families apartâ€“especially when Livvie is assigned to work on the sixth-grade snow maze project with Peter. Clearly, Joyce was right: breaking the chain was a huge mistake. And the only way to set things straight is to find out who sent the letter in the first place. . . .,Rich in humor and suspense, Julie Schumacherâ€™s absorbing novel is about friendship, choices, and the kind of luck that ,really, matters.,From the Hardcover edition.
