Unmaking Hunter Kennedy  by Anne Eliot From Goodreads : After a car accident--an event he considers a prank gone bad--pop star, Hunter Kennedy is forced to hide out with his aunt in small-town Colorado.

Review: The New Guy (and Other Senior Year Distractions) by Amy Spalding

The New Guy (and Other Senior Year Distractions) by Amy Spalding Blurb from Goodreads : A ridiculously cute, formerly-famous new guy dropping into your life? It's practically every girl's dream.  But not Jules McCallister-Morgan's.  I realize that on paper I look like your standard type-A, neurotic, overachiever. And maybe I am. But I didn't get to be the editor of my school's long-revered newspaper by just showing up*. I have one main goal for my senior year-early acceptance into my first choice Ivy League college-and I will not be deterred by best friends, moms who think I could stand to "live a little," or boys.  At least, that was the plan before I knew about Alex Powell**. And before Alex Powell betrayed me***. I know what you're thinking: Calm down, Jules. But you don't understand. This stuff matters. This is my life. And I'm not going down without a fight.  ---- * Okay,...
