Prom Anonymous-Blake Nelson
This is a book about three childhood friends who go their seperate ways, Chloe the path of a rebellious punk ( though really underneath it all she was just Chloe), Jace, the all-around girl jock, and Laura, the perfect girl-next-door. Despite their seperation of three years, when they came together, more specifically Laura and Jace to try and convince Chloe to come to Junior Prom.
When they convince Chloe to go, it's all about getting her and Jace a date. Laura is going with longtime boyfriend of two years, Mike, who is a senior.
Following the three on their boy adventures is very exciting, and I was quite surprised to find that Laura is a quite likeable character, despite her "popular" appearance, she is really just a girl, and as you discover towards the end, a not-so-perfect girl with a not-so-perfect life.
I thought this book was extremely well written and quite enjoyed Chloe's poetry (I being a poet myself).
Each character really is individual and i enjoyed following each of them on their journey and discovery of themselves, as they all go on the search for the man of their dreams (yes, that includes the taken Laura).
Read it! Lots of surface amusement as well as feel-good writing!

Emily,
I also love poetry. This is an added bonus to the book.
Prom is very stressful. It was when I went and I find more and more, there is a lot of pressure on graduates to out do each other. Fancier dress, bigger limo , unusual after party.
This sounds like a good read for those going to prom.

Emily,
I put this out as a blogger recommends.
I put Emily not geek chic.
