Date
Him or Dump Him? Ski Trip Trouble
The big school field trip to Mount Frost is
finally here! You and your best friend Heather can’t wait
to hit the slopes, hang out in the lodge, and check out all
the cute guys from the neighboring school . . . until the cool
new girl Molly asks you to room with her. Which friend should
you choose? And in between braving the Black Diamond run with
an old crush, and sipping a steamy cup of cocoa with a sweet
younger guy, you’ve got snowball fights to win, a whole
town to explore, and even—gulp!—karaoke night to
attend. Will you ski your way to a sweetheart, or be left out
in the cold?

Date
Him or Dump Him? The Dance Dilemma
The junior homecoming dance is right around
the corner. And there you are—without a date. Your best
friend invites you to join the decorating committee; she swears
the quiet guy in your English class is going to be there. Another
friend is eager to hit the mall in search of the perfect dress.
If the football players just happen to be hanging out in the
food court, all the better! To decorate, or not to decorate?
Vintage dress? Or just-arrived-in-stores chic? And at every
page turn, there is the question of your date. Will you land
the guy you want? Or will you go to the dance alone, if you
go at all? |
