I read Are We There Yet? by Kathleen West and I couldn't put it down. Each chapter is the point of view of various seventh graders or their mothers or one grandmother. Teddy and Sadie were best friends in kindergarten. Their mothers bonded at school events. Now that Teddy and Sadie are in middle school and starting to get into trouble, their mother's friendship starts to fall apart. Alice is the mother of Teddy and she is probably the main character in the story. Each chapter was quick and left me wanting more information.
