My Book Summary : In this high school in Massachusetts there is a secret fraternity called the 318s, and they just recently picked their latest prank victim: Eliza. Eliza knew about the group but it's an anonymous type so most of the student body doesn't really know who the actual members are or not. However, about 3 weeks ago or so, she recently decided on going through her boyfriend's, Cooper's, items while she was by herself in his room and came across his initiation process.
While doing so, she read the sheet that listed a bunch of point rankings for kissing, etc. that Cooper would have to do with Eliza. Making it so that their whole relationship was based on a lie and she broke up with him because of it.
NOW ... the 318s are getting revenge on her (because she outted one of their members) by stealing her notebook. But it wasn't just any kind of diary/notebook it was a place she kept things she was afraid of doing (like asking a guy to dance) or saying (like the things she wishes she had the guts to tell her friends, family, or other people).
But stealing her notebook was just the first step. The 318s try to freak her out by getting her to do some of the things she wrote in the notebook. If she doesn't do as they say, they plan to publish the notebook online.
So, with the help of her two best friends Eliza runs around Massachusetts during a night that will change her forever. Doing things, she would usually be to scare to do. Trying to out smart parents and cops. Having Cooper with her throughout the experience. Making her wonder why Cooper's trying to help her, if he even cares about her, or if he's just pulling together a personal prank all on his own.
Will she be able to get her notebook back before she reveals more then she should or even a secret that's in the book but not her own?
My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars!! It's a sweet book about a girl who feels she has lost her most prized possession, just to have to turn up into the "enemy's" hands. So, she goes out of her way to do what they say to get it back. But just when you think things are going one direction the secondary characters make decisions of their own Eliza world turns into something you never thought would happen. I highly recommend it for those who like sweet teeny romances, with a girl power kick to it. =0)
Book Teaser(s) :
I approach them gingerly, not really sure exactly where to begin. I mean, what do I say, "Oh, hi, Nigel, I have to kiss you now?," "Wanna make out?," or maybe just "I'll give you twenty dollars if you kiss me." I pull my shirt down a little, because I figure I need all the help I can get. ~ within Chapter 6
