Consistently praised for her warmth, wit, and insight into perennial teen concerns, Rachel Vail has done it again in Brilliant. Quinn Avery is perfect.... Well, she was perfect, but now sixteen-year-old Quinn has had enough of being the calm, responsible Avery sister. After her mom is publicly fired from her job and the family home goes up for sale, something inside Quinn breaks, and a wild, reckless Quinn emerges. Soon she's lying, sneaking out, and kissing boys she shouldn’t. When one of them turns out to be her sister’s boyfriend, has Quinn finally gone too far to save herself

Readers of Sarah Dessen, Susane Colasanti, and Elizabeth Scott will fall in love with Rachel Vail’s Avery sisters trilogy—three romantic, heartbreakingly hilarious teen sisterhood stories that are as addictive as they are inspiring. Brilliant, the final book in the series, which includes Lucky and Gorgeous, is the story of eldest sister Quinn—and the ultimate tale of teen summer love and growing up.

Industry Reviews

Praise for Brilliant: "Good girls and rebels alike will be able to identify with this adolescent rite of passage. A natural choice for teens waiting for their next Sarah Dessen fix." -- School Library Journal

"Vail has done a superb job. Readers who pick this title up will definitely want to backtrack to the earlier titles, and those who've heard Phoebe's and Allison's takes won't want to miss Quinn's." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Vail ends this trilogy on a high note, one that should especially resonate with teens whose lives have changed with the economy. " -- Kirkus Reviews

"Vail shows a clear understanding of the everyday turmoil faced by today's teens and handles them with wit and obvious affection. If they haven't already read its predecessor, Lucky (2008), teens will want to after finishing this one." -- Kirkus Reviews
