In this sequel to Sloppy Firsts, Megan McCafferty brings back Jessica Darling and all of friends (and not-friends) for their last year at Pineville High. Jessica's best friend, Hope, is still far away, so Jessica must negotiate college applications, the end of her running career, her sister's pregnancy, and, oh yeah, Marcus Flutie, with only her "like, best friend" Bridget to guide her. This book is hilarious, and sensitive, and moving, and just plain terrific. I don't know how I will survive the wait until the release of Charmed Thirds in 2006.
