Before I even read the book, I was taken in by the concept. A girl trapped in a 19-Kids-and-Counting style show, forced to desperate measures to escape her own infamy? Sounds fantastic. Plus, I'd just read another book by Heather Demetrios ("I'll Meet You There") that I'd enjoyed. SO I scooped it up right away. Fortunately, I wasn't (that) disappointed. 
 First things first-the plot. I felt that I was gasping in shock along with the family as the twists and turns came. When the big plot point came where Chloe stood up for herself, I was applauding. I was that excited. I was kind of disappointed when, at the end of the (slightly overlong) book, there were some loose ends, but I just saw that there's a sequel, so I'm appeased. :) 
 However, this book wasn't perfect. Though I loved the supporting characters like Benny and Lexie, and hated the villains like Chuck and the Baker parents, I was kind of in the middle on Chloe. You see, I felt sorry for her-her life had definitely been negatively affected, if not completely ruined, by "Baker's Dozen," and her mother's willingness to ignore that for money was appalling to me. But I didn't like Chloe all that much. She struck me as very unsympathetic and negative. She seemed like the type of person who says things like, "Your life's not hard. If you knew what it was like to be me, then you'd understand what a hard life is." And that sort of rubbed me the wrong way. 
 Patrick, her love interest, was okay. I wasn't really reading it for the romance-and am not a huge romance person anyway-so his presence neither annoyed nor titillated me. Similarly, I didn't pay much attention to Chloe's friends. 
 I did kind of wish that we got to know Chloe's other siblings, but there's like 10 of them-if they tried to introduce them all, this book would have to have Bible-thin pages. 
 Overall, this was a good read, and I'd be completely willing to check out the sequel, which features Lexie as the protagonist. I would give this book 3.5 stars out of 5/7 stars out of 10.
