For Ruby Pepperdine, the “center of everything” is on the rooftop of Pepperdine Motors in her donut-obsessed town of Bunning, New Hampshire, stargazing from the circle of her grandmother Gigi’s hug. That’s how everything is supposed to be—until Ruby messes up and things spin out of control. But she has one last hope. It all depends on what happens on Bunning Day, when the entire town will hear Ruby read her winning essay. And it depends on her twelfth birthday wish—unless she messes that up too. Can Ruby’s wish set everything straight in her topsy-turvy world?

The Center of Everything, by Linda Urban, is a story told along two timelines. The first is the present, a day in the main character, Ruby, called Bunning Day. The other timeline is the past leading up to Bunning Day. Ruby's life hasn't been going that great for her, as is told in the past timeline, but on Bunning Day, the day of the guy who invented the donut hole, everything seems to fall into place by the end of the day. This book is good for younger girls and anyone who liked A Crooked Kind of Perfect, because it's by the same author. Hope you like!
