The Alpha Bet
by Stephanie Hale
This cute little novel is kind of a "My Fair Lady" for the 13 - 16 year old set, with a little "Mean Girls" thrown in. Yet its got a couple parts that are a little adult for early teens.
Little Grace Kelly has just gotten into college and through her new roommate, has turned from "Geek to Greek," which includes a make-over and a crash course in a social life.
The book tries to be an adult fiction read for older tweens but it seems to talk down to them at times. I feel like the book couldn't really find its target demographic.
However the character of Grace Kelly (or GK) is cute and charming, her roommate has that mysterious and reassuring quality. There are so many different types of people in the book you are sure to find someone you relate to in it (for me it was GK, with her nose to far in a book to see where she was walking or to make friends).
I admire the growth and flaws of Grace Kelly and her peers and the plot line is charming itself with chuckle-worthy moments. So yeah, the book has some flaws, but it's still worth the read.
