About this ebook

Jane White goes by the pen name Gabriel when she writes letters to Bubba, her imaginary enemy. She’s been writing to Bubba (short for Beelzebub) since second grade, blaming him every time something in her life goes wrong. It’s never her fault! She doesn’t want to admit that her impetuous behavior and smart-mouthed comments often land her in trouble. And now that she’s a teenager, Jane’s slacker ways exude an I-don’tcare attitude. But Jane does care. She cares about fitting in at school; she cares that Sharp deMichael and his brothers next door think of her as normal and start excluding her from their offbeat plans; and she definitely cares the day she receives a letter from Bubba. How can an imaginary enemy write back? Just as the time comes for Jane to face her lifelong foe–she must also decide whether or not to assume responsibility for her actions.

Jane is a normal teenager who wants nothing more than to slack as much as she can w/o having to do any work or put any effort into anything she has to do. For the most part her life is normal until it throws a curvball at her and then she has to blame her imaginary enemy Bubba, she has been writing letters to him since the second grade.

I first want to say the description is kind of misleading. I thought the book would mostly be about Jane taking on Bubba and trying to figure out how he's writing back. Also that Sharp and his brothers were always her friend until the start of the book, when they started to exclude her. No, we just read about her growing up occasionally writing to Bubba, see how she interacts with the little neighbor boys, then near the very end we get around to the whole "Bubba starts writing back" issue. It's a really good book though, I was just thrown off by the description and was surprised(also disappointed) by what I read. I highly recommend though, it was fun.
