Confessions of a Not It Girl
Preview: Hear it

High school is never easy . . . and when you are suffering from a hubris complex and are convinced that the gods on Olympus have focused their attention on you, things are sure to get even harder. In this smart and sassy debut novel, the spotlight is on Jan Millera selflabeled Not It girl struggling to find out what and who she wants. From her best friend, who is an It girl, to her parents, who are way too embarrassing to her crushes (who always seem to be in the right place at the wrong time), there is never a dull moment for Jan. With college application deadlines looming and a group of seemingly vindictive gods ready to sabotage her every move, Jan is about to set off on a memorable trip through senior year and prove that being a Not It girl has some major rewards. From firsttime author Melissa Kantor comes a fresh and witty look at senior year from the perspective of one girl convinced she is everything but It. Melissa Kantor teaches at a high school in Brooklyn, New York, where she lives with her husband. This is her first novel.
