The Black Sheep by Yvonne Collins and Sandy Rideout

I read the book Black Sheep, which was basically a bit boring at times. It was mainly about this girl named Kendra who "accidentally yet puposely" sent a reality tv show a letter saying how she wanted to switch families. She ends up being picked, but by now, she doesn't want to. She relunctantly agrees and everything becomes pandemonium. Basically, there's no climax which is a bit wrong for a piece of literature. The book was basically almost like a biography, she was just going through her daily life. The only interesting part was when she started liking the new family's son. They start to secretly date because one of the producers, Judy is following her everywhere. I think this book does give an insight onto how reality tv shows are actually made. And it was a bit annoying how everything Kendra did, Judy took that and twisted it to make her seem like a bad person and making people tune in to see the next episode. I really hated Judy. Well, anyway, this book is okay for reading, but only if you're bored. If you're looking for a good book you can sit down with a cup of hot chocolate on a rainy night, do not read this book. Read this book if you have nothing better to do.
