Confessions of an it girl
Ok so this chick, Jan whose name is really pronounce Yahn, goes to this hoity toity school in Brooklyn New York. her Best friend was named one of New Yorks top ten it girls for the year, ya know, like people to watch, cuz they are cool or something like that. So anyways, that causes a lot of crap for her, because she always kind of feels like her friend is better than her and that she is the embarrassing less successful one in the bunch. She makes all these mistakes with boys and other little things in her daily life that she, doesn't think are funny, but as a reader it is hilarious. and I also can relate, actually the character and I have a lot of similarities, I mean, not the fact that we both live in Brooklyn or anything, but just her personality, and making stupid mistakes all the time. She is also a bit of an inner drama queen, such as myself, making a big deal out of all the stupid junk she does(on an almost hourly basis). also there are some funny puns and interesting sarcasm spoken by her friend. i enjoy this book, only book i have since like the 8th grade, so it must been good then.(by the way, I probably sound like an idiot in this post, my appologies)

This book does sound like teens could relate to it. It sounds funny!
ReplyDeleteEven though this is a blog post, you still should use a little more formal tone. You need more specific examples to show the humor. You mention sarcasm, but that's about it.
