Stupid Cupid is one of the books I picked up at the Girls Taking Over the World Tour at Blue Manatee Books on Saturday.  Rhonda Stapleton has created a fun read that many of my girls will love!  I can’t wait to let this one loose in my classroom. 

Felicity loves nothing more than hanging out with her two best friends, Andy and Maya–unless, of course, it’s drooling over Derek, her current crush.  This looks to be a good year, especially when Felicity picks up a part time job at a matchmaking service.  When she shows up to the first day of work at Cupid’s Hollow, she learns that she really is a cupid.  Armed with a hot-pink and totally tricked out PDA (the modern equivalent of Cupid’s bow and arrow), she is ready to start making matches at her high school. 

Since she can’t be bothered to read the directions (they’re boring), she decides to go with her gut.  The first matches light a fire between couples, but will any of them last?  And then there’s the problem of Maya.  She beautiful and talented but shy.  Felicity would love to hook up her best friend with just the right guy, but which one?  Why just one?  She shoots her email arrows at three different guys for Maya so Maya can choose herself.  Along the way she also shoot arrows to get revenge on some mean girls and spice up her parents’ marriage.  Before she knows it, Felicity is in over her head with love problems.  Can she sort it all out before it’s too late?

I laughed my way through Felicity’s antics at school and home, and hope you will, too.  I’m definitely looking forward to reading more adventures in Flirting with Disaster.
