#51 - Stacey’s Ex-Best Friend

Timeline
Valentine’s Day, second 8th grade year

Plot
Laine calls Stacey to brag about her week long middle of February school break (wtf is that?) and she’s basically a big bitch on the phone - she has a 15 year told boyfriend named King, she has all these magical options for her break, she calls Stacey “Anastacia” bc it sounds more grown up...but for some reason Stacey still begs her to come spend her break week in Stoneybrook. Laine never really agrees but Stacey kind of steamrolls her and all of a sudden she is in Steoneybrook. 

The visit is a disaster. Laine is a huge fucking bitch, she makes fun of everything about Stacey, the BSC, Stoneybrook and all the kids at SMS. It all comes to a head at the Valentine’s Day dance, where Laine is with Pete Black but she treats him like dog shit. Stacey blows up, Laine blows and then Laine gets on a train to go back to NYC early. Stacey writes her a break up letter and returns her part of their best friend necklace. 

Also, the girls plan a Valentines Day party for their kids, and it goes off well. 

Takeaways
Laine is such a fucking bitch in this book. I can’t believe it takes Stacey so long to blow up at her. 

There really isn’t much more to say about this book. 

Oh,except I still can’t believe how often these girls do “events” for their babysitting clients. 

Best character
Stacey, because she acts 13 and tries to make it work with Laine but it just doesn’t. And after she leaves she apologizes to everyone on her behalf. 

Worst character
Obviously Laine. What a bitch.
