<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p><b>The second book in the beloved, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling series - now with a new foreword by <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Rebecca Serle<br></b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>Second Helpings</i> continues Megan McCafferty's <i>New York Times </i>bestselling series - now with a new foreword by <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Rebecca Serle<br></b><br>Jessica Darling is in her senior year of high school and things can't seem to get worse: her best friend, Hope, still lives in another state, and the mysterious and oh-so-compelling Marcus Flutie continues to be a distraction she doesn't need. Not to mention her parents won't get off her back about choosing a college, and her older sister's pregnancy is causing quite a bit of drama in the Darling household. <p/>The second book in Megan McCafferty's critically acclaimed Jessica Darling series is fun, irreverent, and shows that being a teenager is never easy (or boring). Now with a foreword from <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Rebecca Serle and a new author's note from Megan McCafferty!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Praise for the Jessica Darling series: <p/>Alongside Meg Cabot's novels and the <i>Gossip Girl </i>series, I can't think of a series more formative to the turn of the millennium YA! --<i>Book Riot</i> <p/>"Judy Blume meets Dorothy Parker." <i>--Wall Street Journal</i> <p/>Smart, tentative, and funny, Jessica is a likable and wry observer of the competitive, gossipy high-school world."--<i>Booklist</i> on <i>Second Helpings</i> <p/>"McCafferty looks at travails with humor as well as heart." <i>--People </i>on <i>Second Helpings</i> <p/>"McCafferty writes strong characters with rich, believable inner lives."--<i>Publishers Weekly</i> on <i>Perfect Fifths</i> <p/>"Megan McCafferty rocks!
