By Alisa Valdez-Rodrigues, yep another young adult title. I went to another library and started listening to a few YA titles. I have a drive now two nights a week so I have switched to audio books for a little while while I am taking classes. Meet Paski...who has moved from Taos, NM to Orange County CA...she is being raised by her dad, who tries really hard, too hard to be hip and happening. She was popular at her old high school but fitting in with the popular crowd in this school will be difficult as she is already in love with the hottest boy in school who has been dating Jessica, the most popular girl in school. Jessica has it out for Paski...but Paski wants to be accepted. What will she do to become accepted? Will she stand up for herself? read it and find out! This book was recommended for grades 9 and up. There is a hot and heavy scene that made me giggle...
I should take this opportunity to plug two of her adult fiction books...THE DIRTY GIRLS SOCIAL CLUB and PLAYING WITH BOYS, both were really good...strong female Latina characters and lots of fun! I read both of them when I lived in Cincinnati and thoroughly enjoyed both of them!
