Author: Maya Van Wagenen Book Color: Purple
Book Genre: Autobiography Summary: Maya is at the near-bottom of her school's popularity scale. So when she finds a book from the 1950's on teenage popularity by a woman named Betty Cornell, she decides to try it out, doing one chapter every month, no matter how silly it seems or how much she gets bullied. But little by little, month by month, Betty's tips and tricks start to work, and Maya starts changing her world (and the school's popularity scale) in ways she could have never thought of herself. Personal Review: I REALLY loved this book. I would pick it up and read it over and over again if I had the option. Maya is a really good teen author and I highly advise you to try it out sometime. I liked it when she had worn a 1950's outfit to school (complete with shoes) and the gym teacher though she was homeless because the show size looked too big to her, and so asked Maya was size shoe she was so she could get her a new pair! It was SUPER hilarious!! Recommendation: I would recommend this book to anyone who likes autobiographies, teen authors, and funny (but true) stories. I would also recommend this book for people who want to be popular (who knows-Betty's idea's could work! Not like I'd use them myself or anything...). Want to buy the book? Click here.
