Despite years of being as close to perfect as she can be, eighteen-year-old Anna Cabot Percy needs a break.  When her mom jets off to Europe, Anna decides to go visit her father in L.A.  In a manner of hours, she accepts a date with a handsome college student, Ben Birnbaum, who is holding an invitation to an Oscar winner's wedding.

Things are looking up.  She has a gorgeous date, a chance to hob nob with some of Hollywood's elite, until she meets a group of girls who each have their own plans for Ben.

THE A-LIST is a witty, jet setters look at life from some upper crust teens.  Realistic reactions to set backs and typically catty female disagreements make the book seem human despite the fact that one of the "upper crust" is a place I'll never find myself in.  Regardless of that major difference between the characters and myself, I found their adventures to be highly entertaining for an afternoon.

It's amazing to see just how far teen romances have come over the years.  It is stories with this fresh, humorous attitude that will keep teens reading.
