As a woman in her 30s, I’m obviously not the intended audience for this book. I read this as it was a book listed on a reading challenge I’ll be working to complete. Overall, it was an okay book. Not amazing, but not terrible. It was a quick read. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the original adapted movie from the 70s, but I think I watched the TV movie version from the 90s with Shelley Long and Gaby Hoffman less than a handful of times when I was a young kid (don’t really remember it though); I’ve definitely seen the 2003 version with Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis multiple times. This is one of the few times I will say the movie is better than the book (the 2003 version at least).  However, the 2003 movie definitely does not follow the book (of course it still has the same overall mother/daughter switch bodies plot). If you’re expecting it to be exactly like the 2003 movie version, it won’t be. Even though the book is geared towards kids/pre-teens, I did actually enjoy the first half or two-thirds of the book, or so. Then I’m not sure what happened, but the second half/last third was not as enjoyable. I’m not sure if it was the writing, how the story continued, or a mixture of both. Overall, I give this 2.5 stars, rounded up to 3 because of the rating system.
