Nice and Mean by Jessica Leader

Release Date: June 8th, 2010

Middle Grade

Marina is mean. Sachi is nice. Marina is Barney's. Sachi is Burlington Coat Factory. It's bad enough that they have to coexist in video class—but now they're being forced to work together on the big semester project. Marina's goal? Expose her wanna-be BFF as a fashion wanna-be to the entire middle school. Sachi's goal? Prove that she's not just another honor-roll Indian student and get people talking. Work together in harmony? Yeah, that would be no. How can Sachi film something meaningful, and Marina, something fabulous, if they're yoked to each other?

From the author's website

-How will Marina and Sachi coexist? Nice and Mean sounds like a cute and fun read. I love the idea of a video class (wish we had that at my middle school!) Plus Jessica Leader's blog is a lot of fun to read, so I imagine her book will be fun as well!
