I actually bought this hopeing to to get into a new manga...Luckly, it was great.. a quick summary...Penny is retelling of her sophmore year in high school. Her best friend is with a cheating boyfriend who is gorgous, talented, charming, and a major jerk...one day while studying her geology homework, she discovers fool's gold. She decides that it is appropriate for those popular jerks. She forms an undercover club for girls. Soon she has to deal with school work, falling for guys, her fashion designing, losing a friend... etc

The manga in not in traditional manga format, so for someone who hasn't read one before, it is easy to follow... This was my first by an American author.... It wasn't bad..it was good.

I found the plot for this story very original and interesting. The character development was also very good. You'll easily fall in love with Penny, the main character. I think the best thing about this book is the drawing style. I character clothes are very inventive and well drawn. I wish I could own similar clothes. I hope the second volume turns out to be good as well.
