Pop Princess
Bok av Rachel Cohn
From the coauthor of Nick and Norahs Infinite Playlist comes a slick and enjoyably glitzy read (BCCB) that captures the struggles and glories of an ordinary teenage girls climb to celebrity.When fifteen-year-old Wonder Blake is plucked from her job at the Dairy Queen and given the chance to become a teen idol, it seems like a dream come trueeven if it wasnt her dream, but her older sister Luckys. Lucky was on her way to becoming a pop star when she died, and Wonder and her family are still trying to recover from their loss. Offered a recording contract, Wonder jumps at the chance to escape from a dead-end town, her fractured family, and worst of all, high school. Suddenly she has it all: a hot new look, a chart-busting hit single, a tour opening up for superstar Kayla. But stardom isnt all glamourits also lots of work. And maybe what Wonder really wants is as simple as a guy who likes her for herself. As Wonder rises through the pop-princess star-making machine, she also learns that theres a price for fameand that maybe being an ordinary teenage girl isnt so bad after all.
