Welcome, Caller, This Is Chloe
by Shelley Coriell
1 May 2012

The GoodReads summary:
Big-hearted Chloe Camden is the queen of her universe until her best friend shreds her reputation and her school counselor axes her junior independent study project. Chloe is forced to take on a meaningful project in order to pass, and so she joins her school’s struggling radio station, where the other students don’t find her too queenly. Ostracized by her former BFs and struggling with her beloved Grams’s mental deterioration, lonely Chloe ends up hosting a call-in show that gets the station much-needed publicity and, in the end, trouble. She also befriends radio techie and loner Duncan Moore, a quiet soul with a romantic heart. On and off the air, Chloe faces her loneliness and helps others find the fun and joy in everyday life. Readers will fall in love with Chloe as she falls in love with the radio station and the misfits who call it home.

I'll just admit straight off that the main reason I want to read this book is the cover--it's just so ridiculously fun. And man, do I envy that girl's hair. The story sounds pretty cute too, so it seems like this book's going to be a win-win situation.

  4. I read this yesterday! All in one day! It was a lot of fun. A lighthearted read. Chloe is the kind of character that at first is annoying and then you realize you only think that because you wish she was your friend ;-)
