My Thoughts: We meet Essie who just wants to be a normal girl. She makes the cheer-leading team finally and is enjoying her new fame. Her cousin Micah joins her school and everything thinks he's weird since he wears a kippah.
He joins the football team so he tends to be around a lot but Essie keeps its a secret that he's her cousin. She starts dating the football captain who she's had a crush on for a while. She thinks its amazing he finally likes her back. The Team picks on Micah a lot and he takes it with stride. The team goes and toilet paper's his house and Essie feels bad about it but she doesn't know what to do. I liked the way Essie and Micah's relationship started to form, as cousins, family. I also liked how Essie starts to bond with him. By the end of the book, I was satisfied with the way Essie and her boyfriend linked together and how Essie and Micah became friends more than anything else.
Overall: Cute fast read. Liked the characters, each very unique!
Cover: The cover is cute, the way the cheerleader is jumping in the air.
