YA
Popular cheerleader Samantha Taylor decides to run for class president to improve her college application (she tanked the SATs). She also makes a bet with antagonistic classmate Logan that she can go two weeks without insulting anyone. In the process of both efforts, Samantha learns about herself and finds romance with (gasp!) Logan. This is briskly paced, undemanding, and sometimes funny fare.
