Bronwen Oliver often pretends that she must have been switched at birth. She has even developed an alter ego name - Phoebe Lilywhite. She orders magazines in the name and her best friend, Kirsten, calls her Pheebs. She breaks up with her boyfriend on prom night because he had decided that this was the ideal time for them to lose their virginity. Just before her senior year, she meets Jared Sondervan, an acquaintance of her brother's. (She refers to her brother as Jesus, because her mother thinks he is perfect, unlike Bronwen.) Jared and his family are everything she wants and everything her family is not...Or are they?
Gateway Award Preliminary Nominee 2012-13
Food - Bronwen is a vegetarian, a fact she forgets to share with her new boyfriend, Jared, when she is invited to the Sondervans for dinner. She hides most of the pork tenderloin, but eats most of the grilled vegetables. She hates ketchup and cheesecake, but loves java, diet coke, granola, and chocolate chip cookies.
