Super cute

As I love sharing novels, I passed this one on to my roommate one night when she was looking for something light and relaxing. Her verdict, given at 2:30 AM, declared the book, "Very cute. Theo's an [censored] but that Logan kid's legit. Really cute." Really, we're eloquent when it isn't the middle of the night. Here's the rundown: Erin Bright is perfectly content until she learns that the historic field that inspires her writing is about to be sold and developed. The problem? Her boyfriend Logan isn't going to fight it, even though he's clearly going to be StuCo president another year and the company purchasing the field fund is the major contributor to her father's mayoral campaign. Erin decides to go for the position of StuCo prez herself and make a stand for what she believes in despite the fact very few people stand by her. I admired Erin's tenacity and the way Micol managed to show that Logan wasn't the bad guy even when they were fighting. I did feel a little wary about Erin becoming StuCo prez as her campaign focused on an issue that would actually be somewhat out of her power and she never bothered to learn about the issues she would face. But other than that, I was easily swept along for the ride. At 224 pages, POPULAR VOTE can easily be read in one night. While it is cute and relaxing, Erin is still a heroine girls can look up to. She resists peer and familial pressure and finds creative solutions to her problems. From In Bed With Books

Cute, fun Election Book!

Erin Bright is use to being in the spotlight. Her dad's the town mayor, so she's the first daughter and her boyfriend is always the student council president, so she's also the first girlfriend. She's never questioned her role, she just always takes it on. Fashion, school, and helping with campaigns is what her life always consists of and she doesn't expect it to change. But, the time for change comes, when a big company, Caswell Corporation, tries to buy out Everett Field, a sacred place to Erin, where she had not only her magical first date with Logan, but it's the place where her idol wrote the famous book, Restless Nature, that Erin uses as inspiration. When Erin mentions to Logan that he should help save the field, it becomes a major sore spot for both of them. It ultimately results in Erin standing up for what she believes in, by running for office against him, and trying to save the field herself. This brings even more problems to Erin, considering the company trying to put a gas station over Everett Field, is none other than Caswell Corporation, the company that is standing behind her dad in his election campaign. Should Erin just keep her mouth shut for the sake of her dad's campaign or should she fight for what she believes in? Popular Vote is a fast and entertaining read. Ms. Ostow's writing is catchy and she even uses blogging as a major point in her book, which we can all relate to. I like how Erin is headstrong and doesn't break when Logan doesn't agree with her and she decides to run against him. I honestly can say that I didn't see a slow point in this book. It's fast paced and the hits keep coming. I can't wait to read more from Micol Ostow! Bravo! reposted from http://writersblockreviews.blogspot.com

This Book Gets My Vote!

Erin is a high school student, the daughter of the town mayor, and the girlfriend of the student council president. A hopeful writer, she keeps a private handwritten journal as well as a personal blog. After learning about some environmental issues facing her school and her town, she can't stay silent, and, before she knows it, her new passionate stance leads to her running against her boyfriend in the school election. It takes a lot of guts for her to speak up and sound off about a company related to her father's campaign, but she does it. Hopefully, Erin's willingness to take a stand and fight for what she thinks is right will inspire readers to do the same. This book is a fun read. Anyone who has ever run for a student council position will appreciate Erin's campaign. Middle school and high school students know all about the politics of popularity. Popular Vote also brings up other issues: the pressures of being the child of a politician, taking action in your school and community, and taking a stand. Erin certainly gets my vote, as does author Micol Ostow.
