This book is really cute. There were several things that irked me, such as the common cliches of nerds/geeks vs. popular people, but they did not irk me to extent that the book was I enjoyable. In fact, I found the novel a very sweet, enjoyable read. ( )

You would think that this book is like a typical diary book, but its not. There are a lot of things that girls can relate to and is a very funny book about the most popular girl in school who gets braces and glasses and gets completely dumped by her popular friends. I absolutely LOVE this book and cannot wait to read the second book in the series, How to Roch Breakups and Makeups. ( )

Kacey Simon is queen of Marquette Middle School and those who don't exactly worship her fear her razor tongue. She says exactly what she thinks, in the name of honesty, even if what comes out of her mouth destroys a person. When mismanaged contacts cause a serious eye infection that necessitates wearing glasses for two weeks, and a visit to her dentist reveals a need for braces which cause a significant lisp, Kacey suddenly plummets from the popularity pool. She is rescued by a childhood friend, becomes interested in a new boy, and suddenly becomes the lead singer in a band. This paves the way for her social comeback, which is what she really wants... or so she thinks.
Mean girls, a little romance, a little music... this book was lots of fun to read. I predict that my girly-girl readers are going to love it, and be clamouring for the sequel. ( )
