Christopher Grant

Well-written, funny, believable realistic fiction about girls of color: boy howdy, do we need more like this. (Full review at http://www.parenthetical.net/2011/08/18/review-teenie-christopher-grant-2010/)

I think this was a perfect book for girls who are into books about drama
it's mainly based on a african american girl who is struggling to be popular but in the end things don't go the way she wanted them to go

While this book had a slow start, it was easy-to-read and pretty true to life. I enjoyed the characters, but this was not my type of YA book. However, it would be excellent for a middle or high school girl to read.
