โฆ Synopsis
Fans of Girl, Interrupted, Thirteen Reasons Why, and All the Bright Places will love this New York Times bestseller. Dad. Made. Me. Get. A. Job. Ack. Her junior year at Bloomington High School North was tough, what with the PSATs and studying for finals in all her AP classes, and Jordan Meadows is looking forward to a summer of fun and relaxationโdriving around town with her friends in her brand new tornado-red Volkswagen Bug, hanging out at the IU Pool, checking out the cute lifeguards, working on the perfect tanโall while maintaining her de rigueur grooming at the Tranquility Spa, which she visits for all her grooming needs, including manicures, pedicures, eyebrow waxes, leg waxes, and anything else-she-can-think-of-waxes. That is, until Dad lowers the boom. No more Daddy-the-ATM, no more National Bank of Daddykins, no more running his Mastercard up to the credit limit, no sirree, young lady, those days are over. He orders her to get a summer job. Jordan is beyond annoyed. Really, Dad? Really? A job, really? Yes, really. Resigned to her cruel fate, Jordan attempts to find something she can do that won't interfere with her grooming schedule. But then she sees a notice in The Herald Times, announcing that a film crew is coming to Bloomington that summer to film House of Wax IX: Revenge of the Revengenator, and that people wanting to work as extras can apply at an open casting call. How cool is that? She'll work as an extra! In a bizarre twist of ironyโher dad is a master at noticing ironic twistsโJordan parlays her knowledge of all things wax into a job on the makeup crew, dribbling wax on the extras . . . talk about playing to her strengths! And then she meets a cute red-haired boy who enjoys having hot wax dribbled all over his body and then he asks if Jordan will dribble wax . . . anywhere else? Author's Note: Working It is the first book in a three-book series about the girls of Bloomington North High School. The next two books in the series are Crushing It and Loving It. Working It can be read as a standalone. This first book is sweet, and the following two books in the series are more hard-core.
