Cool or not? A fast paced and touching story about teenage identities. Newly arrived in the US, Jo finds herself split in two. Is she the nerdy outsider or one of the coolest girls in the school? Split in two, living two separate lives, Jo is both. But will she ever get herself back together again?
Jo has just moved to America with her mum. She's always been a fairly average girl - not a nerd but certainly never one of the popular kids. But on her first day in her new school, she seems to be adopted by the It girls - and is invited to one of their parties. There, she meets Jake Matthews, officially the hottest boy in school.
Luisa Plaja: "I was born in Glasgow and was brought up in Sicily and Greater London, in that order. I grew up with two languages and at least two cultures. I've lived all over the place but I now live in Devon with my family, which includes two small children, a boy and a girl."
