Title: The Summer I Became a Nerd
Author: Leah Rae Miller
Published: May 7, 2013
Publisher: Entangled Teen

On the outside, seventeen-year-old Madelyne Summers looks like your typical blond cheerleader—perky, popular, and dating the star quarterback. But inside, Maddie spends more time agonizing over what will happen in the next issue of her favorite comic book than planning pep rallies with her squad. That she’s a nerd hiding in a popular girl's body isn’t just unknown, it's anti-known. And she needs to keep it that way.

Summer is the only time Maddie lets her real self out to play, but when she slips up and the adorkable guy behind the local comic shop’s counter uncovers her secret, she’s busted. Before she can shake a pom-pom, Maddie’s whisked into Logan’s world of comic conventions, live-action role-playing, and first-person-shooter video games. And she loves it. But the more she denies who she really is, the deeper her lies become…and the more she risks losing Logan forever.

My Teaser:

Today, I officially became a senior.  I should be strutting through the halls like a peacock, eying soon-to-be juniors and bestowing my newly gained seniorly wisdom upon them, but instead, I'm sitting here in my hand-me-down Lumina wondering if Logan really knows who I am.

This could be a disaster of epic proportions.  What if he says something to someone?  What if the girls on the squad realize I swoon over Peter Parker or that I secretly wish our uniforms included a cape?
