She loves clothes and fashion, chatting on Facebook to her friend Jessica, and wishing that she had a boyfriend like Adam Kessler (a Zac Efron teen-idol type). Her wish is almost granted when she discovers tickets to the current play that he is starring in. Despite her better judgment, she finds a dress and transportation, and considers herself lucky to be attending when she suddenly meets Adam Kessler. What will she do and does she continue to pretend she's the owner of the tickets?Prep Coolfinds Diana sneaking into elite Foreman Academy in order to find Jessica's stolen cell phone. To complete her disguise, she borrows a school uniform that has been dropped off at the cleaners. Things do not go smoothly, and once again she has to do some fast thinking. As in the first story, all ends well. These books aren't great literature, but they're easy to read, and girls will love to slip into them.—Julie Shatterly, W.A.
