Faking It

MishaHicks

"If the world can’t handle the truth, give them a spectacular lie." Bitch. That’s what they called me at my old school. I disagree: I’m just brutally honest, that’s all. Some people don’t like honesty. Exhibit A: Matthew’s family. None of them want to acknowledge that their Golden Boy is gay. Exhibit B: My Mother. I only told her the truth: that she was a crappy parent who never should've gotten knocked up in the first place. But she was so offended that she shipped me off to my fabulously wealthy father and his walking-billboard-for-plastic-surgery of a wife. So I devised a brilliant plan. My new friend Matthew was sick of hiding his sexuality. I was tired of obnoxious rich boys hitting on me. So why not pretend to be dating? He wouldn’t have to answer uncomfortable questions anymore, and I’d enter my new school as the girlfriend of the star quarterback. It should be easy, right? Of course, I didn't plan on falling for Matthew's brother.

I don't know that pulled me into this story, I guess because Zooey Deschannel was on the book cover. But that doesn't matter, because as soon as I read it I was just hooked. I think it's the use of complex words... or the fact that I wanted Johnathan and Amy to kiss already... I don't know, but I really loved the story. I really do think it's because it sounds so smart, and it uses big vocabulary, I think that's what had me interested in the story. It is an amazing story anyways, and I recommend it.
