How Not to be Popular by Jennifer Ziegler
***** Five Stars
Overview:
Maggie Dempsey is tired of moving all over the country. Her parents are second-generation hippies who uproot her every year or so to move to a new city. When Maggie was younger, she thought it was fun and adventurous. Now that she’s a teenager, she hates it. When she moved after her freshman year, she left behind good friends, a great school, and a real feeling of belonging. When she moved her sophomore year, she left behind a boyfriend, too. Now that they’ve moved to Austin, she knows better. She’s not going to make friends. She’s not going to fit in. Anything to prevent her from liking this new place and them from liking her. Only . . . things don’t go exactly as planned
Review:
She did what?!?!
This review will be short.
This book was pretty epic I think in some ways. There were things I loved and things I absolutely could not stand!
I loved the whole idea of the book. It was hilarious! Trying to be unpopular and doing outrages things to achieve it. It was so different from the other high school books I've read! I had to keep reading just to find out what crazy thing she'd do next!
I liked the idea of the little romance in the book, not the Trevor part. Her pining over her ex was extrememly annoying but hey girls first love of course that's how she's going to be. But later in the book her next romantic interest felt a bit well flat. Something was just missing from it for me.
My favorite character was Penny all the other characters were kind of flat. I mean her parents were hilarious but I don't think they exsist anywhere. And the ending well it was rushed and I should have seen it coming if I wasn't being distracted by all the mechanical jumpsuits and whatnot. So I finished it slightly disappointed but still happy.
It's a nice read for a laugh :) and the craziness really makes up for all the other parts it's lacking in so just go read it!
