I just ordered this book and I’m so stoked to read it. I knew nothing of it until I read How Sassy Changed My Life and discovered  it was excerpted in Sassy and became so popular among readers that it was published shortly after. (What can’t they do?) The author is Blake Nelson, not to be confused with the actor Tim Blake Nelson. I only mention this because I was buggin out for a hot second thinking Tim Blake Nelson was writing young adult novels without my knowledge. Anyway, I’m sad I didn’t know about this book in Jr. High. I have a feeling Blake Nelson may have rivaled Paula Danziger for my main author jam. I think we should start a youth outreach program that involves sending copies of this to any girl with a copy of Twilight.
