Gr 6–10—Logan McRae wants three things during her sophomore year—a fellowship to study writing in Monterey for the summer; for Nathan, the hottest senior around, to notice her; and a butt like Geneva's, the super popular editor of the school newspaper. Then she finds the book Fearless Astrology hidden among her father's possessions and the question isn't whether she's going to get them, but when. Using the advice in the magical book, Logan sees changes happening not only in those around her, like her grumpy English teacher turned semi-happy, but also in herself. She becomes super confident and apparently more alluring since Nathan is starting to show interest in her. Unfortunately, a group of anonymous pranksters on campus, The Gears, is causing trouble and has also noticed her. Will Logan figure out who The Gears are before it's too late? Will the book help her get what she wants or is it all in her imagination? This entertaining book mixes mystery and intrigue with romance and astrology in a fast-paced story that teens will enjoy.—Traci Glass, Eugene Public Library, OR
