Pretty is....

Gorgeous by Rachel Vail (NY: HarperCollins, 2009)

In this quirky twist of the Faust story, ninth-grade Allison Avery makes a deal with devil: her cell phone in exchange for seven people thinking she's gorgeous. For terminally insecure, Allison this seems like a no brainer. But then she finds herself having to choose what's more important to her: her family and relationships or selling out to win a modeling contest.

Excellent teen read. Some cursing, no sex, no violence.
