This book is about Jessica, a girl in high school. She is very dreamy, and dreams of becoming an actor someday. One day, while in the Walmart parking lot, she has a little mix up. During this mix up, she meets a hot guy named Jordan, who just moved to the town and will be going to Jessica's school. They talk for a while, and become friends. But Jordan has a secret that he doesn't want anyone to know. Not even her. But when she finds out his secret, she is so stunned, that she forgets her promise to keep the secret and tells her drama teacher. She did this to save the school play, but now can she save their friendship? This book is a whole bunch of unfortunate events, that turn out to equal one very fortunate one. This is a story about friends, love, and the worst of all...betrayal.
I thought this was a great book - one of the best I've ever read. It was very entertaining, and had no mistakes. It has to do with a lot of real issues like friends, love, drama, and betrayal of friends. It has a lot of different feelings and emotions that everyone can relate to. The girl in this story is also like any other normal girl, who has her share of troubles and forgets things often. I can relate a lot to this book, and I really enjoyed reading it.
