"Waiting On" Wednesday: Un-Fug Edition

Last Wednesday, Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan (the Fug Girls) announced that they'd written a YA novel.  SPOILED will be available June 1 from Poppy - the Hachette Book Group imprint that's home to Gossip Girl, A-List, The Clique, and various other series.  I think it's a good fit for Cocks and Morgan's humor and attention to sartorial detail.

Spoiled

How cute is that cover?  I'm super excited for this one, since GFY is one of the few sites I read every day.

Back cover blurb:
Sixteen-year-old Molly Dix has just discovered that her biological father is Brick Berlin, world-famous movie star and red-carpet regular. Intrigued (and a little terrified) by her Hollywood lineage, Molly moves to Los Angeles and plunges headfirst into the deep of Beverly Hills celebrity life. Just as Molly thinks her life couldn't get any stranger, she meets Brooke Berlin, her gorgeous, spoiled half sister, who welcomes Molly to la-la land with a smothering dose "sisterly love"...but in this town, nothing is ever what it seems.

Set against a world of Redbull-fuelled stylists, tiny tanned girls, popped-collar guys, and Blackberry-wielding publicists, Spoiled is a sparkling debut from the writers behind the viciously funny celebrity blog GoFugYourself.com.

I feel it prudent to mention this link I found via GFY: Your 2011 Books-Into-Film Lineup by Rachel Syme for NPR.
