The Actual Real Reality of Jennifer James

(4) YA When not-exactly-popular Jennifer is voted onto a reality show set at her British high school, she puts aside her surprise to focus on the prize: a full scholarship to the elite St. Willibald's. As events unfold, Jennifer discovers she may not want to win after all. Though clearly derivative of Louise Rennison's Georgia Nicolson series, this is a well-told, unpredictable romp.
