When Hannah Trimester's high school suffers from an outbreak of Chlamydia, she thinks it is her chance to write an award winning article that will get her into the school of her dreams. But finding the truth isn't easy. With other problems on the line such as grades, prom, graduation, and boys, Hannah quickly learns that tracing this STD to its source is something she wasn't quite prepared for. [Not suitable for people under 13 at all or the fainthearted. Some drugs, sexual references, and cursing.]

Rosie Alder-Pembrook isn’t planning on letting her ultra-feminist club get shut down due to the senior class council’s budget cutbacks (and to be honest, it’s kind of killing her senior year buzz). But when it seems that the only way to revive it is to strike a deal with the semi-sexist/mostly ignorant Class Council president, Peter Bevan, to help him fix what he broke with ex-girlfriend/real life Barbie doll, Ella Hall, she’s made to wonder if it’s quite worth selling her soul over. And so, alongside her best friend, (who she’s sure wasn’t always this hot) a group of angry teenage feminists, and the outlandishly willing drama department, Rosie embarks on a mission to reclaim her beloved club – at whatever the cost.

Nora's the lead singer of Peacock, vying to win the battle of the bands at her small liberal arts college, but every time she's on stage her attention is on someone who's always in the crowd - a certain Ava who doesn't realize they share the same hometown in Mississippi. Nora fantasizes a future with her childhood crush, but Ava's map of romance doesn't even include her - although Nora's been working at changing that. Unfortunately, when a stray acoustic cover of one of Peacock's songs goes viral, Ava snatches the opportunity to ask the boy in the video on a date, and Nora is left in an awkward position as her confidante. As the pressure of keeping her secret grows, Nora struggles with the decision to finally confess her feelings, but there's one thing stopping her: She just so happens to be the boy in the video. -- All individuals, incidents, and institutions are a work of fiction.

This may be hard considering he's the God-given prophet of Seabrook high; the type of kid who offers existential philosophies on a Monday and spews poetry the next. Friends are a select few for Casper, and Holden doesn't have the right kind of luck for a golden ticket. But he isn't worried. After all, to win the heart of a prophet, all you need is intelligence.
