This book first came to my attention on The Story Siren’s In My Mail vlog. It looked like a good book (it’s that cover snob thing, I’m working on that) and so when I saw the cover on The Story Siren, I looked it up and now I want to read this sucker.

Here’s the cover that caught my eye:

And here’s the blurb that sealed it’s fate in my TBB list:

Natalie Sterling wants to be in control. She wants her friends to be loyal. She wants her classmates to elect her student council president. She wants to find the right guy, not the usual jerk her school has to offer. She wants a good reputation, because she believes that will lead to good things.

But life is messy, and it’s very hard to be in control of it. Not when there are freshman girls running around in a pack, trying to get senior guys to sleep with them. Not when your friends have secrets they’re no longer comfortable sharing. Not when the boy you once dismissed ends up

being the boy you wants to sleep with yourself – but only in secret, with nobody ever finding out.

Slut or saint? Winner or loser? Natalie is getting tired of these forced choices – and is now going to find a way to live life in the sometimes messy, sometimes wonderful in-between.

Yeah, this book sounds like all kinds of good and I’m all about reading it too. This book comes out on September 1, 2010 so that’s just a few weeks. Anxious, that’s me. Mark your calendars!
