Gingerbread by Rachel Cohn
4.0
This is like an R-rated version of Spinelli's Star Girl.
I found this for a quarter at the library and bought it for my classroom library. It was in my car at a moment when I had some down-time away from home. I figured it'd be better than nothing, but it turned out to be quite a gem. This would have been my all-time favorite book had it existed when I was in high school.
***Spoiler Alert for teachers & parents****
Teenage protagonist (age 15?) is promiscuous & has an abortion.
