Have you read Freshman Year and Other Unnatural Disasters yet? If your answer is no, then what's wrong with you?! Seriously, this is a MUST read! This is the kind of book you need to read when you're in a reading funk or just need something light and funny. It's one of the few books I read this year that as soon as I finished I wanted to start it all over again. Seriously guys, LOVED it! Go check out my review HERE.
I don't normally post things like this, so this shows you how serious I really am about how strong my love is for this book. But first you'll want to know a bit more about it...
Freshman Year and Other Unnatural Disasters by Meredith Zeitlin
Hardcover (paperback in March!), 288 pages
Published March 1st, 2012 by G.P. Putnam Sons
Kelsey Finkelstein is fourteen and FRUSTRATED. Every time she tries to live up to her awesome potential, her plans are foiled – by her impossible parents, her annoying little sister, and life in general. But with her first day of high school coming up, Kelsey is positive that things are going to change. Enlisting the help of her three best friends — sweet and quiet Em, theatrical Cass, and wild JoJo — Kelsey gets ready to rebrand herself and make the kind of mark she knows is her destiny.
Things start out great - her arch-nemesis has moved across the country, giving Kelsey the perfect opportunity to stand out on the soccer team and finally catch the eye of her long-time crush. But soon enough, an evil junior’s thirst for revenge, a mysterious photographer, and a series of other catastrophes make it clear that just because KELSEY has a plan for greatness… it doesn’t mean the rest of the world is in on it.
Kelsey’s hilarious commentary throughout her disastrous freshman year will have you laughing out loud—while being thankful that you’re not in her shoes, of course…
Meredith Zeitlin is such a fun person that she does these cool videos with her talking cats. Yeah, her cats can talk! LOL. No, but they are very entertaining and here's her latest one.
Here's the original one she did.
And here is the totally amazing book trailer for those of you haven't seen it yet.
