Calista and Patrick are the most popular kids in the school
and most good looking. Calista gets a pimple a few days before a school dance
and tries to cover it with concealer, but she breaks out in a rash because she
is allergic to her mom’s concealer. Suddenly people stop talking to her because
she “isn’t pretty anymore”. Laura and Damian, a few losers, pay attention to
her and they become friends.
I personally enjoyed this book. It was very realistic
situations. The plot was clear and very credible. Everything that happens in
this book could really happen and I’m sure has happened to someone. Setting is
extremely believable. It was a really good book overall. I would read a series
of this book, and recommend it.
