Synopsis:
In her heart of hearts, Mia has but one wish: an evening spent with Michael in a tux and a corsage on her wrist—in other words, the prom. Michael, however, does not seem to share the dream that is the prom. Worse still, a service workers’ strike (with Grandmère and Lilly at the heart of it and on opposite sides) threatens the very existence of this year’s prom.

Will the strike end in time? Can Mia talk Michael out of his anti-prom views? Most importantly, will Mia get to wear her pink prom dress?

Review:
This book shows that Mia really doesn’t want to say what she thinks to Michael, as much as she loves him, because she’s worried he’ll think she’s stupid or hate her. It was quite frustrating how Mia wants something so bad she has even told her Grandmere about it, but won’t confront Michael directly. It also shows that Lilly is quite the opportunist, and perhaps not the best friend Mia has. All in all, it was interesting to see how the characters are continuing to grow and develop–perhaps further apart than together.
