Book Description

March 31, 2009
It's junior year at Del Rio Bay High, and from near and far, the guys are taking center stage. . .

Now that Mina's boyfriend Brian is off to Duke University, life in Del Rio Bay is lonely. And Brian's busy schedule as a Duke baller isn't helping. As the season heats up and the phone calls get fewer, Mina's insecurity increases--and so does Brian's impatience with it. But he's not the only guy in the clique dealing with craziness.

Michael's passion for fashion has led to a chance to attend a special creative arts program in D.C. He knows he should jump on it, but leaving home is harder than he thought. He turns to his dancer friend Rob for support, but Rob's presence around the clique triggers star athlete JZ's feelings of homophobia. As JZ's discomfort simmers, his feelings get the best of him when he finds himself seriously attracted to Jacinta--and discovers she's on a different page.

With relationships in the balance and friendships at risk, Flipping the Script challenges the guys to step up when the stakes are high.

4.0 out of 5 stars Things Change!, July 15, 2009
This review is from: Flipping the Script (Del Rio Bay Novels) (Paperback)
In Flipping the Script by Paula Chase, the crew from Del Rio Bay are back! However, they are different and things are changing. Mina's man, Brian, is away at college and she misses him a lot. Mina is very concerned about what Brian is doing while away and she is also concerned about her own feelings changing. In times past, Mina has been able to rely on her friends for guidance and support but the crew is not as tight as it once was and everyone is dealing with their own issues. Will the crew be there for each other or will maturity cause them to split and take separate paths as they grow?

Ms. Chase does a wonderful job exploring teen relationships and current events. Even more intriguing are the back stories, in particular the one that deals with homophobia in high school. The storyline, while fresh and current, deals with age-old issues in a way that will appeal to teens and that may be of benefit to older readers. It is wonderful reading about how young people mature and deal with the ever changing world around them. I have thoroughly enjoyed the Del Rio Bay novels and recommend them to all readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Implosion, May 7, 2009
This review is from: Flipping the Script (Del Rio Bay Novels) (Paperback)
Mina's boo is at Duke playing ball and she's trying so hard to deal without becoming super obsessed when it's apparent that their relationship doesn't have the fit she'd become familiar with. Obviously Mina is having issues, yet she's going to try adjustments. The problem is, she keeps getting these feelings and she's afraid that "out of sight, out of mind" may lead to something more. It really doesn't help that she's encircled by couples. Luckily for Mina, as she drowns in a sea of loneliness, her boy Michael tosses her a life jacket.

It becomes tensely evident that the clique isn't exactly as thick as it once was. Everyone is now off doing their own thing and hanging out as a group has become progressively few and far between. When Mike, the already estranged member of the clique, gets an opportunity to finally chase his passion for fashion, it threatens to shred the fabric of him and JZ's unique camaraderie. Will the clique be able to handle a colossal alteration?

Flipping The Script by Paula Chase bought out the waterworks in this episode. It's stitched with so many emotions, hopes for the future, a first in the love department and within the folds, we see the gradual maturity of the clique. I truly love this series and I'm fretful for the next segment. While I can easily recommend this series to all teens, I do advise parents to also read with their teens as it deals with current issues.

3.0 out of 5 stars Exposed and Proud, July 20, 2009
By 
The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Flipping the Script (Del Rio Bay Novels) (Paperback)
The follow-up to Who You Wit, FLIPPING THE SCRIPT by Paula Chase, again showcases the clique from Del Rio Bay. This time around a new school year begins and the group is in full force with the exception of Brian, Mina's boo, who is away at Duke University. Mina must come to grips with the realization that Brian is away and may play. This aching feeling is always with her and begins to cause havoc in her life. When the website, Hot Duke Boys is revealed, what lengths will she go to find out what Brian's really up to?

Resident womanizer JZ, is still pining for Cinny, but his behavior turns oppositional when a new face infiltrates the clique and he doesn't know what side of the fence resident designer and best bud Michael is on. Michael has a chance to apply to a prestigious magnet school and must decide what is more important, his future or attending his current high school for his senior year. Through all of the chaos and uncertainty, Mina is still the resident feel-good, why can't we all get along, president of the bunch.

FLIPPING THE SCRIPT deals with the pending issues of today's teens. Written in a realistic manner, with a touch of humor and the slang of today's youth, the imagery sets the backdrop and the dialogue sets the tone. Ideas and issues that our young people deal with on a regular basis, are exposed and dealt with. From the hood to the suburbs, Chase has touched upon the angsts of our children.
