Meg-A Readers Recap #7 (Review of "How to Be Popular"!)

Hey Everyone! Week 7 has come and gone for Meg-A Readers and now it's time for that recap!! :) But first it's time for my weekly Meg Cabot themed tidbit! :) This week I've got a review of Meg's How to Be Popular , which I started during the Meg-A Readers Read-A-Thon, but unfortunately was unable to finish in time, just because this summer has been CRAZY!! Anyway... From  Goodreads : Do you want to be popular? Everyone wants to be popular or at least, Stephanie Landry does. Steph's been the least popular girl in her class since a certain cherry Super Big Gulp catastrophe five years earlier. Does being popular matter? It matters very much to Steph. That's why this year, she has a plan to get in with the It Crowd in no time flat. She's got a secret weapon: an old book called what else? "How to Be Popular." What does it take to be popular? All Steph has to do is follow the instructions in The Book, and soon she'll be partying wit...

(For more on my High school experience, you can visit MY post HERE !) Populazzi by Elise Allen takes the hierarchy of high school to the extreme...sometimes, I'm being honest here, I thought a little too much to the extreme.
