Perfect You - Elizabeth Scott

Summary: Kate Brown's life has gone downhill fast. Her father has quit his job to sell vitamins at the mall, and Kate is forced to work with him. Her best friend has become popular, and now she acts like Kate's invisible.
And then there's Will. Gorgeous, unattainable Will, whom Kate acts like she can't stand even though she can't stop thinking about him. When Will starts acting interested, Kate hates herself for wanting him when she's sure she's just his latest conquest.
Kate figures that the only way things will ever stop hurting so much is if she keeps to herself and stops caring about anyone or anything. What she doesn't realize is that while life may not always be perfect, good things can happen -- but only if she lets them....

Review: This book was pretty good. I definitely liked Will's character a lot, but I really disliked the father's character. He was so selfish and it was always as if he was trying to pretend that he wasn't. The dad just seemed very fake to me, because he always pretended to be the good guy that cared, but he only cared about himself.
Will and Kate's relationship really drew me in, because there is a lot of passion going on between the two of them. Kate is so guarded whereas Will is so relaxed. I thought that the means to the end was better than the end itself.

  2. I LOVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEE this book! It's amazing, and Will is so my type:-D
    I have a friend who was like Kate's(always taking her for granted) so I related to it a lot. It's my favorite novel out of all of Elizabeths'.
