From acclaimed author Siobhan Vivian, a novel about the ways sex and love can change a girl.Natalie Sterling wants to be in control. She wants her friends to be loyal. She wants her classmates to elect her student council president. She wants to find the right guy, not the usual jerk her school has to offer. She wants a good reputation, because she believes that will lead to good things. But life is messy, and it's very hard to be in control of it. Not when there are freshman girls running around in a pack, trying to get senior guys to sleep with them. Not when your friends have secrets they're no longer comfortable sharing. Not when the boy you once dismissed ends up being the boy you wants to sleep with yourself - but only in secret, with nobody ever finding out. Slut or saint? Winner or loser? Natalie is getting tired of these forced choices - and is now going to find a way to live life in the sometimes messy, sometimes wonderful in-between.

Probablemente lo segundo . ¿Por qué siempre tanta importancia a la virginidad y a la reputación femenina? El sexo ...
"Not that Kind of Girl" is a difficult book for me to rate, and I spent some time trying to figure where on the scale I fell about it. The rolling action and dynamic of the characterization was good, that I can't contest. While it's a book that explores the perception of teenage sexuality, specifi...
Not That Kind of Girl was not necessarily a disappointing book, but it didn't quite do everything I wish it did for me. That being said, it was an interesting read and the overall theme it conveyed was important and definitely needs to be heard. Natalie is smart, talented, and completely in control....
This book should be mandatory for every high school girl to read. Not only does it have a sweet romance, but it's the type of book that you come away having learned something.
