A review by rbreade
Eleven by Lauren Myracle

First chapter is titled "March," and begins with Winnie's 11th birthday. Each chapter is named for a successive month, ending the next March at her 12th birthday. During the year, Winnie drifts aprt from her then-best friend, Amanda, who aligns herself with the new girl from Chicago--the novel is set in Atlanta--who happens to be a domineering personality. Winnie befriends the previously hopeless Dinah Devine. Winnie, in the penultimate chapter, is the one who finally stands up to Gail.
