Going VintageBy: Lindsey Leavitt
Released: March 26, 2013
"When Mallory discovers that her boyfriend, Jeremy, is cheating on her with an online girlfriend, she swears off boys. She also swears off modern technology. Inspired by a list of goals her grandmother made in 1962, Mallory decides to "go vintage" and return to a simpler time (when boyfriends couldn't cheat on you online). She sets out to complete grandma's list: run for pep club secretary, host a dinner party, sew a homecoming dress, find a steady, do something dangerous. But the list is trickier than it looks. And obviously finding a steady is out . . . no matter how good Oliver (Jeremy's cousin) smells. But with the help of her sister, she'll get it done. Somehow. Lindsey Leavitt perfectly pairs heartfelt family moments, laugh-out-loud humor, and a little bit of romance in this delightful contemporary novel." (Summary from goodreads.com)
I'm so excited for Going Vintage! It sounds great and I love contemporary books!
Aw this sounds like a cute idea. I like the idea of a simplier time where the world didn't revolve around reality tv and junk that is out in the world right now.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy this once you get a chance to read it :)
