Some Girls Are, Courtney Summers

Title: Some Girls Are
Author: Courtney Summers
Pages: 256
Published: January 5th, 2010
My Rating: B
Summary: Climbing to the top of the social ladder
is hard-- falling from it is even harder. Regina Afton used to be a member of the 'fearsome fivesome' an all-girl clique both feared and revered by the students at Hallowell High... until vicious rumors about her and her best friends boyfriend start going around. Now Regina has been "frozen out" and her ex-best friends are out for revenge. If Regina was guilty, it would be one thing, but the rumors are far from terrifying. Full Summary: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6624871-some-girls-are
 My Review: Okay so i gave it a B because I actually really liked it, it didn't start of slow or bore me it was on the right pace. If that makes sense. But I don't know why i gave it a B, it just didn't get an A from me. The end was great and I love the whole revenge thing but sometimes I got mad at the main character, Regina.

So Regina got raped at a party by Donnie her bff's  boyfriend but everybody says she wanted it and alot a horrible things go around about her. She starts hanging out with this really sweet guy, Michael. He gets pulled into it. Some parts were sad, and got me angry but it was actually very good. I reccomend(:

My Review: First off if no one knows, John Green is a great author! He wrote Paper Towns, and Looking For Alaska. This book got straight to the point and wasn't slow wich I liked about it. But I don't really care for the cover! Ahhh!!

And kind of succeeds.

***SPOILERS***
Colin finds Lindsey's boyfriend cheating on her and they tell her. Hassan starts dating Katrina she is who Lindsey's boyfriend is cheating on her with. And Colin and Lindsey start dating(:
