When Suzy's boyfriend drops her for another girl, the hurt and anger are almost more than she can stand. She vows never to get tied down to one boy again—it's just not worth the pain of breaking up.
But Suzy's resolve to play the field breaks down when she meets Mike Kelly. They're irresistibly drawn to each other, but Mike wants Suzy all to himself. If she says yes, it means leaving herself wide open for the agony of rejection again. If she says no, she might lose him forever. What can Suzy do?
This book did not interest me. I read a few chapters, then I quit.
Holly's life as a soap opera star has cut her off from a lot of the things most teenagers take for granted—parties, friends, and dates. Sometimes she worries that she's giving up her own life to play Lindsey on the popular daytime series, "Hartley Square."
Lindsey's got it made, while Holly's always struggling to keep up with her busy schedule and still find time for Tim. He means more to her than any boy she has ever met, but there are hardly enough hours in her day to see him. With no script to guide her, Holly must decide if she can have stardom, popularity—and a romance.
This is a misleading summary. The book is not about finding time for Tim. Holly is trying to fit in with the kids at her new school. She acts out her soap opera personality in order to impress them. Later, Holly learns that her new friends have some significant character flaws. Holly has to get her act together in order to avoid losing Tim.
See? I like the actual version much better than the fake summary. The story is better than it sounds.
This is a very good book.
