Evie is living the high school dream: she's got a great family, super friends like Dee Dee and Raquel, and she's finally Alex's girl. It can only get better when her parents promise her a sixteenth birthday that will rock the school. However, there's a catch: if Evie's grades fall, the party is off! Sabrina, Evie's seemingly perfect older sister, arrives home from college suddenly and won't leave her room. Raquel is out with boys every night and drinks booze like it's water. Dee Dee is longing for her boyfriend back in Mexico City and wants to move back there. Evie tries her best to stay out of the drama in everyone's lives. It's not as easy it should be. Volunteering at a horse stable seems to be a great way to earn extra credit. It's hard for her to keep her mind on the horses instead of Arturo, the cute know-it-all who works his way into Evie's heart. Alex is preoccupied with catching the perfect wave, so what harm can a little flirting do? Evie's got to figure it all out and come out without a scratch. Is it even possible? Why can't a girl just have fun? SCANDALOSA is an enjoyable book set in the heart of California. Evie seemed like a spoiled little rich girl at first but she's got a caring heart. I liked the mix of Spanish and Mexican influence that was found throughout the book, too. Reviewed by: hoopsielv

Evie's Telenovela continued... =)

Scandalosa is a great follow up to Honey Blonde Chica! Evie, still very clever and adventorous. This time she gets to experience different emotions and situations. She finally is dating Alex but at the same time she likes someone else. Michele Serros keeps the readers enterntained with Evie's adventures and her relationships with her boyfriend and her best friends, Dee Dee and Raquel. This is a great book because it truly shows what a Latina growing up in the US goes through. I love knowing more about Evie Gomez, hopefully Ms. Serros would write a whole series on Evie... I would just keep on reading all the "escandalos" and "chismes". :)

Perfect for all Cali Chicas in the making!!

A very realistic portrayal of today's youth in anywhere U.S.A.,however,Evie Gomez and her pals (the Flojos) just happen to be of Mexican descent and live in California. Some parents might cringe with the coarse language and some of the subjects (alcoholism) dealt with,but if you want to know what the young person in your family has to deal with in the hallways of high (literally) school, pick up this book!

Go Flojos!

Evie Gomez is older and wiser, and so is the writing in Michele Serros's second entry into the young adult fiction genre. That being said, the writing is as fresh as ever in category often plagued with one dimensional stereotypes that insult the intelligence of an increasingly sophisticated young audience. This time around characters deal with topics such as drug addition, love, loss, and oddly enough, horse rearing. The topics and themes are mainstream enough to be accessible to most readers, while giving Mexican and Mexican American audiences a fresh prospective on what it really means to be American, as one character struggles with her decision to return to Mexico. These more dramatic moments are balanced by the whit and humor of Serros, who shows once again that she cares not only for her characters, but her audience by creating realistic characters that reflect their lives. The writing remains entertaining as always, but also insightful, and by the end of the story the reader will feel like a member of the "Flojos crew." An excellent read and follow up to "Honey Blond Chica"! Be sure to check it out!
