Vegan Virgin Valentine


Sometimes you read a book and you aren't for sure what to say about it.Vegan Virgin Valentine by Carolyn Mackler is one of those book. Mara Valentine is your typical over achiever. She is always in control. She is shooting for being number one in her class, on the year book staff, is dually enrolled in high school and college, and has a job. She has already been accepted to Yale and plans on attending John Hopkins for summer classes. She has the final months of her senior year planned out and nothing is going to get in her way.

WRONG! Coming to live with Mara and her parents; is her pot smoking, super slutty, pain in the butt niece, V. One the first day that V is at school, she is making out with Mara's former womanizing boyfriend. Oh the shame!

Before you know it, Mara is dreaming about boys, grilled cheese sandwiches, and not going to John Hopkins over the summer. V is getting serious about school and even tries out for the school play. What is the world is going on!

This book is humorous and will delight those who are around 13-18 years.
