Surviving High School
Surviving High School | Melissa de la Cruz, Lele Pons
5 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 5 to read
Lele sits alone at lunch until, overnight, her digital fame catapults her into popularity in high school. Suddenly, she goes from the bullied loser to the most popular kid in school. She now has to deal with the trials of the cliques, the drama, the boys, the girls -- all while keeping her grades up and making her parents proud. Can she graduate without making a mess of things? Speaking to the new generation of teens digitally savvy and connected, yet still facing the same universal teenage issues rejection, loyalty, popularity, and um, why is it that our iPhones can survive a car crash but break when we place them on the coffee table? Lele shows us with zest, enthusiasm and self-deprecating silliness that the kids are all right. Vine superstar Lele Pons's debut novel, co-written with established bestselling YA author Melissa de la Cruz, is the hilarious, heartfelt story of a girl with the looks of a cheerleader and the personality and humour of a lovable dork, who navigates the wilds and wonders of high school in sunny Florida.

This isn't a class pic but it's from when I was in high school(that is my mom) when I was most likely to be at home taking notes on every book I read . Yes, I'm highly addicted to taking notes on books! 😂😂📖📚And I still have every one of those notebooks from HS and college

I just couldn't do it. I just couldn't feel any connection, so this one is going in the donate pile.

An impulse buy, and at the moment I'm really not sure if I'll finish it. I'm hating the protagonist more with every chapter, and while I know I'm not the target audience, so much just feels inauthentic and forced. I guess my students are just too far removed from Lele's world
