For too long, Kitsy has had to satisfy her dreams of becoming a real artist by giving her friends makeovers before prom.

5.0 A Long Way from You
I don't read many young adult contemporaries but, if this is what is out there, I really need to start. A LONG WAY FROM YOU was a story with heart and has a main character I fell in love with.
