Bookroo's summary
Rory Swenson has been counting down to her twelfth birthday, eager to tackle her list of newfound freedoms: a cell phone, solo mall trips, and more. But as the clock ticks down, will her dreams of independence match reality? With each item on her list, Rory faces unexpected challenges and hilarious mishaps. Can she navigate the ups and downs of growing up, or will her perfect plans unravel? Join Rory on her journey to discover if turning twelve is everything she hoped for—or something entirely different.

Whenever Rory asks her parents for something, they always say, “When you’re twelve . . .” Well, in exactly, 18 hours, 36 minutes, and 52 seconds it will finally happen. Rory’s life will officially begin!
