About This Book

POP QUIZ
What happens when your best friend accidentally turns in your secret, highly personal journal entry instead of your English essay?
A. Your teacher reads it aloud in class, mortally embarrassing you right in front of the hottest guy in school!
B. Your teacher sends your journal to a literary agent, who sends it to a publisher, who turns it into a book.
C. Suddenly you're a best-selling author and a teenage celebrity sensation???
***D. All of the above.***

Formerly ordinary fourteen-year-old Jamie Bartlett isn't so ordinary anymore. Ever since she wrote a story about Isabella (a.k.a. IS), the stereotype-defying, popular-girl-crushing superteen, Jamie's life hasn't been the same. Suddenly she's doing interviews and book signings, flying to L.A. to hang out with celebrities, and dating Marco Vega, the hottest guy in school! But will all of this attention go to Jamie's head? Or will she take a lesson from IS and remember that there's more to life than popularity?
