Best Lines

Every Wednesday, YA Highway asks their readership a simple question to answer on your blog. Once you answer, you link your blog in the comments for other readers to hop on board. This is Road Trip Wednesday.

I didn’t have a clear concept of what “sexy” was, but I thought Luke’s half-smile fell into that category. Because of his face, he was what some of the girls would call a “pretty boy,” like Jordan Catalano, but the set of his jaw moved him into what the Blondettes called “yummy.” That term sounded so wrong and made me think that Jess and Sam maybe were cannibals.

Don't forget to stop by YA Highway to see what others are saying.
