Because we all have something we're waiting for.
Not That Kind Of Girl by Siobhan Vivian
Natalie Sterling wants to be in control. She wants her friends to be loyal. She wants her classmates to elect her student council president. She wants to find the right guy, not the usual jerk her school has to offer. She wants a good reputation, because she believes that will lead to good things.
But life is messy, and it's very hard to be in control of it. Not when there are freshman girls running around in a pack, trying to get senior guys to sleep with them. Not when your friends have secrets they're no longer comfortable sharing. Not when the boy you once dismissed ends up being the boy you want to sleep with yourself - but only in secret, with nobody ever finding out.
Slut or saint? Winner or loser? Natalie is getting tired of these forced choices - and is now going to find a way to live life in the sometimes messy, sometimes wonderful in-between.

"Saint or slut? Winner or loser?" Best tag line in a LONG time. I loved Siobhan's last novel, Same Difference, so I have high hopes for this one.
And maybe you're wondering why I decided to put this during Louder than Words week. It is about a girl who is trying to deal with life when it comes running at her, and the decisions she has to make.
I think it fits in well, don't you?
