The List

The List (Paperback) - Common - by Siobhan Vivian

Quite a bit has happened in this book so far. Now that the list has gotten around and the ugliest and prettiest have been named there is a lot of problems. Everyone is preparing for homecoming and that's all anyone can think about ,besides, the list of course. Sarah the ugliest junior is planning on not showering or changing her clothes for an entire week until homecoming night. She is determined to make sure that no one is having a good time besides her. Danielle the ugliest freshman has bought the most girliest dress so she does not look like a man. Jennifer the ugliest senior who has been put on the list all four years of her high school career suddenly becomes popular. She is even nominated for homecoming queen.When Jennifer and Margo were in middle school they were best friends but since high school but do not talk anymore. Margo's friends' Dana and Rachael invite Jennifer to go look at homecoming dresses with them and Margo. But, Margo chickens out because she does not want to become friends with Jennifer again. Finally, Candace the ugliest sophomore is trying to show everyone she is not ugly on the inside. By doing this she is throwing a party before homecoming with alcohol hoping she will rule again. This list is destroying friendships and everyone involved day after day. Each day brings a new challenge or temptation for these girls and their lives. Having something like this in high school labeling everyone would be very hard to deal with and get through.
