High school junior Jenny
Greenley is so good at keeping secrets that she's the school
newspaper's anonymous advice columnist. She's so good at it that, when
hotter-than-hot Hollywood star Luke Striker comes to her small town to
research a role, Jenny is the one in charge of keeping his identity
under wraps. But Luke doesn't make it easy, and soon everyone—the town,
the paparazzi, and the tabloids alike—know his secret...and Jenny is
caught right in the middle of all the chaos.

I actually really liked it. I just found it in the library, while looking for new books to read and just thought, "what the heck, might as well." It was fun, and a very fast, simple read. I really enjoyed it and the ending was different to what I thought, and I loved it. The main character Jenny Greenly was pretty likeable. Obviously annoying at times, when she wouldn't do anything against the bullying to the girlie that I absolutely can't
remember her name... She would always check on her afterwards, and yes
that great and all but, as Luke said she has power. Which, at first I didn't believe and still think is very unlikely, but was quite awesome. And it was so simple, she just had to (wo)man up and start doing the right thing. Just like Luke said. Now, on the subject of Luke, I absolutely for the life of me, thought that he would start liking Jenny, and I was absolutely wrong! Like most cliques, she would have ended up with the guy, fix the school, get the cabbage baby back, and life would be amazing. Wrong! Jenny ended up with Scott who was absolutely perfect for each other :D and I was too oblivious to notice anything going on between them... Anyways I really enjoyed the book

What’s worse than
lusting after my best friend’s on again off again boyfriend? How about
my dad dating his mother, and my mom redesigning his bedroom for her
show? With fate interfering so cruelly, can you really blame me for
putting my magic potions to not-so-good use?
I’m Zoe Miller, a
fifteen-year-old witch with only one power-—a talent for potions. I have
my life all mapped out. I plan to be a doctor and develop drugs to cure
disease. We already have potions to help all kinds of symptoms, but
none of them will get by the Food and Drug Administration. I mean, the
government bureaucrats are not going to okay the ingestion of bat wings
or unicorn horns. Luckily, fat-free margarine has already been found to
be an adequate substitute for dead man’s toe. So, I really hold out hope
that I can make things work. Looking for edible substitutions to use in
the potions is my passion.

I remember reading it a while back (June 17 2012 to be exact) and I thought that it was super good, and very interesting, but the second time around... Meh. It could have been a lot better, and at times it was childish. I know that she's, like, 15 and all. But I mean come on! It was ridiculous at times, I mean she wouldn't stand up for her self when it came to her friend (that was not a good friend, she was absolutely horrible) she just kept making up excuses as to why she couldn't stand up to her.
