''Something to Blog About'' by Shana Norris

This book is about a girl named Libby and her secret blogging life. When she first came to Yeardly High, she had no friends but her cousin named Roger. She found a website that had a password lock for private blogs. Libby signed up for this website and has been writing in her internet diary since 6th grade, now she's in the 9th grade. Seth Jacobs is Libby's secret crush, Keisha is one of her best friends, and Roger is her other best friend. Her arch enemy is Angel Rivera, Libby says she ruins her life by the minute. Libby writes in her blog every single day and lets out all her feelings about everything, she talks about the whole day and different situations. She wrote about how her friends were so stupid when she was mad at them, how much she is in love with Seth Jacobs, and sometimes her mother. Her father left when Libby was 2 months in the wound, her father wasn't ready or just didn't care. Libby's mom is raising her to be a strong woman so she will be ready for anything that comes in her way. One day Roger spit out that he had a crush on Keisha and told Libby. She remembered in the past when Roger told Libby a secret, about 2 days later the word was all around 3rd grade. Then she found out that her other, Marcy was in love with Angel Rivera's father! Seth needed ''totouring'' from Libby in chemistry class, even thogh she had no idea what she was doing Keisha was being a helpful friend by tutoring Libby in the morning before tutoring Seth. Long story short, Seth was secretly in love with Libby then they got together. Angel Rivera's dad and Marcy stayed together, Keisha and Roger stayed friends, Angel and her dad became closer and less distracted with work. Turns out this book was just a very romantic love story.
