Lara Pearlman loves acting, cream on her muffins, and her best friend Oggy. She also may be falling in love with Blake Taylor, the cute boy from school with a dubious past. In an attempt to get closer to Blake, Lara joins him in the cast of a school play. Her plans, however, backfire as she ends up battling Oggy and the flirty Chelsea Wilson for his attention. Among love triangles and an increasingly strange school production, events turn sinister and Lara has to decide where her loyalties lie. Sure to appeal to anyone who has ever dreamed of being an actor or had a crush on an unattainable boy, this witty novel offers plenty of action as well as a positive message about being confident in oneself.
