Young Adult
A funny and smart romantic comedy about getting
the guy. . . and finding yourself.
Sophomore
Nora Fulbright is the most talented and popular new
cheerleader on the Riverbend High cheer squad. Never mind
that she used to be queen of the nerds—a chess prodigy who
answered every question first, aced every test and repelled
friends at every turn—because this
year, Nora is determined to fully transition
from social pupa to full blown butterfly, even if it means
dumbing down her entire schedule. But when funny, sweet
and very cute Adam moves to town and steals Nora’s
heart with his untra-smarts and illegally cute dimple,
Nora has a problem. How can she prove to him that she’s not
a complete airhead? Nora
devises a seemingly simple plan to barter her way into
Adam’s classes that involves her classmates, friends—and her
older brother Phil’s award-winning AP history paper. But
soon, Nora can barely keep track of her trades, and
struggles to stay in control of her
image.
In the end, the only thing that can
save Nora is a chess tournament—that she has to compete in
wearing her cheerleading uniform. Can she prove to everyone
that she can be both a butterfly and a nerd? Allyson
Valentine has created a story so full of enamoring
characters, pitch-perfect humor, and delightfully
frustrating romance that it will leave
you cheering. Great for fans of Stephanie
Perkins's Anna and the French Kiss, Susanne Colosanti
and Sarah Dessen.
