After total humiliation at her thirteenth birthday party, Jenna Rink wants to just hide until she's thirty. Thanks to some magic wishing dust, Jenna's prayer has been answered. With a knockout body, a fabulous wardrobe, an athlete boyfriend, a dream job, and superstar friends, this can't be a better life. But soon Jenna realizes that adult life isn’t as easy as she hoped for.

I think we all want to feel something that we've forgotten or turned our backs on, because maybe we didn't realize how much we were leaving behind
My dream is still to wake up and have that closet all to myself, and a job like that Sometimes we want to grow up too fast, and then when we finally do, we realize things used to feel happier, more colorful, and so much easier. And suddenly, you find yourself wishing you could go back, even if just for a minute
