When Bethanyself-proclaimed geek girlmakes the varsity cheerleading squad, she realizes that theres one thing worse than blending in with the lockers: getting noticed. She always felt comfortable as part of the nerd herd, but being a member of the most scrutinized group in her school is weighing her down like a ton of textbooks.
Even her Varsity Cheerleading Guide cant answer the really tough questions, like:
How do you maintain some semblance of dignity while wearing an insanely short skirt?
What do you do when the head cheerleader spills her beer on you at your first in-crowd party?
And how do you know if your crush likes you for your mind or your & pom-poms?
One things for sure: Its going to take more than brains for this girl genius to cheer her way to the top of the pyramid.

I thought This book was ok. The plot was good. But I think the characters were weird and there was a few too many.

Ok about the characters. Bethany to me was kinda annoying and naggy. She seemed to complain too much about cheerleading and the uniforms and everything else. And she magically gets the best basketball player to fall for her. Not Real even if you are a geek turn cheerleader. I think there were to many guy charcters I got them confused to much.

The plot was pretty good and seemed to progress pretty well.

Overallt I liked the book but was just not a huge fan of the characters
