Spoiled by Heather Cocks, Jessica Morgan

To be published June 2011....


I was expecting a Gossip Girl-ish book, and that is like, totally, what I got for the first few chapters! Like, omg! :) But I liked reading it, especially when the book dropped some of the brand-droppings, and got into the meat of the story. Sure, the story has been done before, but with the great cover on this one, it's going to very popular in bookstores!

Molly's mom is dying from cancer and admits a confession on her deathbed--Molly's dad is Brick Berlin--a movie star/director/everything famous out in California. So when her mother dies, Molly moves from Indiana to Los Angeles. Once there, Molly isn't sure if it's the Cinderella-like world she wanted--her dad is great, but always really busy, and her sister seems nice, but suddenly turns against her. Brooke Berlin doesn't want to share the spotlight with her new sister, and tries to turn everyone against Molly--the media, their dad, and the students at their snooty school. When Brooke's enemy takes Molly under her wing, the reader knows something bad is going to happen, and, sure enough, it does. Molly isn't sure if all the glamour is worth it, but Brooke realizes that maybe a sister is a plus. The ending is a bit up in the air, but there is a sequel!

P.S. This was the perfect book to read while re-watching The Devil Wears Prada!
