Famous in a Small Town by Emma Mills

Famous in a Small Town

by Emma Mills

For Sophie, small-town life has never felt small. She has the Yum Yum Shoppe, with its famous fourteen flavours of ice cream; her beloved marching band, the pride and joy of Acadia High (even if the football team disagrees); and her four best friends, loving and infuriating, wonderfully weird and all she could ever ask for.

Then August moves in next door. A quiet guy with a magnetic smile, August seems determined to keep everyone at arm's length. Sophie in particular.

Country stars, revenge plots, and a few fake kisses (along with some excellent real ones) await Sophie in this hilarious, heartfelt story.

Initial Thoughts: Kind of unmemorable. Sometimes the banter between the friends was funny, and sometimes it felt forced. The author has a weird habit of announcing things about the characters 200 pages, as asides, in that one might have expected to be mentioned earlier.
