Molly McGarry is about to learn that the only thing more traumatizing than spending six months trapped in your boyfriend’s head is being stuck inside your ex-boyfriend’s new girlfriend’s head. After Molly dumps Gideon because she thinks he’s lusting after some one else, a game of spin the bottle leads to a kiss between Gideon and the beautiful, sexy Pilar Benitez-Jones. Somehow, the kiss knocks Molly out of Gideon’s head—and right into Pilar’s. Now she’s desperate to get Gid back. She uses all her “superpower” to try come between Pilar and Gid, but instead of breaking them up, she seems to be bringing them closer together. Can she stand to be at school with Gid and at the same time be inside the mind of the girl he moved on with? How does Molly win back Gid without letting him know what’s going on? And how on earth is she ever going to get out of Pilar’s head...?

Review:

Praise for The Other Girl: "Readers will again find Molly’s Midvale world full of bawdy talk, pot smoking, and naughty pranks, but they will appreciate the smart insights, too.... This is fun fare—and deeper than a typical prep school series." --Publishers Weekly "The tongue-in-cheek humor, posh prep-school lifestyle, and teen romantic angst make this perhaps the most enjoyable and believable chapter in the lives of Midvale’s preppies." --Booklist

Praise for Inside the Mind of Gideon Rayburn:

“Readers will have a good time living inside Gid’s head as he slowly becomes more confident—and goes a little wild along the way.” –Publishers Weekly

“Teenage angst has never been so appealing. First-time novelist Sarah Miller has written a funny and penetrating story.” –Library Journal

“Being inside Gideon’s mind is like reading the personal diary of a guy you have a huge crush on and discovering that he’s funny, sexy, wise, and more human than you ever imagined.” –Cecily von Ziegesar, author of the New York Times bestselling Gossip Girl series

“Smart, funny, sexy and totally true, reading Inside the Mind of Gideon Rayburn is like getting access to a club you've always wondered about...and then you're inside and it's better than you imagined it ever could be.” –Zoey Dean, author of the New York Times bestselling A-List series

“Body image? Popularity? Virginity? Who would have guessed boys worry about this stuff? Through an unnamed narrator, the reader gets an all access pass inside the mind of an average guy, ultimately discovering that we’re not so different after all. Inside the Mind of Gideon Rayburn is required reading for anyone wondering what boys are really thinking.” –Alyson No�l, New York Times bestselling author of Evermore and Blue Moon
