Dear Lord, I need Your help and sooner would be better than later. Wouldn't you know it, just as soon as I decide to attempt the 5-Day Bible Study Challenge, my parents start heaping on loads of pressure to get me into Julliard. My friend Amy isn't any better, urging me to ask Luke Ryan to homecoming. As if the cute, transfer jock would actually go out with me. I mean, we're kinda friends, and I've enjoyed our Geometry study sessions, but in case Amy hasn't noticed, I'm the invisible one at Aubrey Christian Academy, and I like it that way. On top of that, I have a feeling Luke's concealing something behind those chocolate-brown eyes of his. I know I can be self-centered and a bit melodramatic, but I really do want to seek Your will for my life. Then maybe I'll even figure out which direction points up. Sincerely, Andrea Jamison High School Junior Change-o-phobic & complete neurotic

From the Author

Hello Readers! I hope you will enjoy Andrea's story. This is Book 1 in theAubrey Christian Academy Series. Here is a little bit about my maincharacters Andrea & Luke.

Andrea considers herself to be theleast interesting of her group of friends. In her mind, she isn't smartlike Amy or artistic like Angie or beautiful and popular like Alisha.She sees herself as that girl with the plain brown hair, size nine feet, and who doesn't participate much in school activities. She's a lot like most kids. I think the average person can relate to her. Except shedoes have this exceptional talent she likes to downplay. She's actually a wonderful pianist and her parents have all these designs to get herinto a performing arts school so she can one day end up at a place likeJulliard. In addition to that, Andrea has a sweet, caring spirit andthis is something that Luke, our hero, notices right away. It sets herapart from every other girl at school in his eyes.

Then we haveLuke, cute transfer student from California. Luke might be an all-starvarsity baseball player, but he's not like the rest of the A-list kids.He's very down to earth and not looking for what's popular and cool.He's had to mature quickly. His family life is not the greatest. They've experienced a personal tragedy, and that's part of the reason why helatches on to Andrea early on. He sees something in her that every oneelse seems to miss. She has value and when they get together they justkind of have that spark.

Love to hear what the rest my readers think of Andrea & Luke!

Worth it!

Megan’s Thoughts:

The main reason I tried this story is because the excerpt on Amazon made me laugh—which is a big achievement. So I downloaded the novel with no real expectations other than I hoped it would be good enough to finish.

Long story short: It was!!!

Swept up into Andrea’s life, I laughed at a teenage girl’s humor (even though she doesn’t realize she’s funny), cringed at random daily life in high school, and shared sympathy as she struggles out of her comfort zone.

I totally loved the budding relationship between Andrea and Luke. Cute to watch as they both tackle their insecurities. They kept me anxious to see how it’d all would end.

Every girls’ name in Andrea’s circle started with the letter “A”. Originally, I thought this would be an issue throughout the book. I pictured myself struggling to figure out what A-name goes with which girl, but the author captured descriptive personalities, backgrounds, and quirks, making it effortless to associate names with each friend.

The interactions between Andrea and her parents were written in a way to view both sides of the story, showing that parents are in fact—humans. ☺ They can be wise and yet aren’t perfect either. However, I did think it odd for her mom to call her “daughter” during their conversations…?

The faith element weaved throughout the story well. Mostly found in the journaling sections, or in Andrea’s thought process, which never felt out of place.

A nice YA Christian fiction read!

This was a delightful YA contemporary book. Andrea's wishy-washy teen angst and the close bond with her friends was like traveling back to high school. It's so nice to see YA Christian fiction.

Fast-paced and Entertaining

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2016

When Andrea promises to complete a 5-day bible study and journal, she isn’t sure if she will be successful or how it will affect her life. But as the week wears on, she faces a number of seemingly insurmountable challenges, most of them concerning school and her crush on new guy Luke Ryan, not to mention Luke’s crush on her. Then there’s the piano recital and the potential to be scouted for Julliard. To make matters worse, mean girl Stephanie is also interested in Luke. Will Andrea survive the week, let alone see her 5-day challenge through to the end?

Cindy K. Green’s Andrea and the 5-Day Challenge is a quick and entertaining read, one which I finished over the course of 4 days. The story is fast-paced and the characters are believable. Poor Andrea is stuck feeling like such a hopeless failure as she tries to please everyone around her: her parents, whose only dream is to see her be a successful pianist, her friends who want her to let loose and have fun with Luke, she neglects to please herself. Rather than embrace a chaste relationship with Luke, she spurns him several times, but by the end of her 5-day challenge, she learns how to communicate and negotiate and that, if she’s simply honest with the people in her life, there is a way to make everyone, including herself, happy.

Though I’ll admit I was a bit wary of the religious aspect of this text, Green manages to work in the importance of prayer and God in one’s life without hitting the reader over the head with it. The Bible passages are short and relevant to what’s happening in Andrea’s life. In addition, Andrea uses the passages she chooses on each day of the challenge to find solace in her life and to become a better person, which is kind of cool. Young girls will be able to identify with Andrea’s search for her identity, her soul, and for a way to have it all.

Note: I was gifted a free eCopy in exchange for an honest review.

Dear God, I need more from this guys

Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2017

Andrea is starting that complicated phase of adolescence in which one already has some definitions of what wants for life and begins to reject others. She is now god-fearing, extremely obedient to her parents, and loyal to her friends. But her friend Amy is urging her to invite rookie Luke to Homecoming banquet at the Christian school where she studies and her parents do not want her to get involved with any boy, just devote herself to her piano studies and recital.

Luke is a true Prince Charming and a saint because he does everything to please Andrea and uses a thousand subterfuges to stay close to her but the girl runs away from him and ignores him at various times, which made me very angry and at some points of reading bored . Even coming from the trauma of parental divorce and suffering from his father's pressure, he proves to be more mature than his age and I fell in love with him.

The basis of the story is fantastic, I love books that use biblical passages and positive messages, but the writer exaggerated in creating 200 pages of a girl only running away from a cute-handsome-perfect boy. I think she could have give more dynamic by showing situations with Andrea's friend and even putting in more Bible messages. She missed the chance to make a 6/5 star book.

I really enjoyed the accounts of Andrea's diaries of challenges where she always ends with a biblical passage. I'm going to look for more of this author's books, because I believe that she should gradually would mature her writing and have many chances to write more fun stories like this one.
