In exactly one hour, eighteen minutes, and thirty-five seconds, Mina Mooney will be dipping her pink Nellie timbs into the infamous frosh pit. . .

Hoping Del Rio Bay High will live up to her greatest expectations, Mina has big plans for infiltrating the school's social glitterati. After all, she's been mad popular for as long as she can remember--and she isn't about to go from Middle School Royalty to High School Ambiguity. But Del Rio Bay is a big school, so it'll take some plotting to avoid getting lost in the crowd. Good thing she isn't afraid of a little hard work and that her playground peeps--Lizzie, Michael, and JZ--have got her back.

But it isn't long before Mina's big plans for securing her social status take a back seat to some drama that was so not expected. Lizzie's scored an invite from the beautiful people that Mina can only dream about, and not only is Michael tripping about being back in school, but now he's beefing with JZ. Worst of all, Mina's sociology class experiment to rid the world--or at least Del Rio Bay High--of prejudice is about to backfire. . .because it might just mean she'll have to rid herself of her very best friend.

A novel about friendship, betrayal, and how far some will go for popularity, So Not the Drama takes a fresh and wickedly funny look at planet high school.

About the Author:
Paula Chase resides in Maryland with her husband and two daughters, where she lives and eats competitive cheerleading nine months out of the year. Her writing has appeared in Girls Life, Sweet 16, Baltimore Magazine, and others.
From Booklist:
"Popularity is a drug. . . . You honest to God need it." When Mina starts high school, the social scene in the cafeteria is the center of her world, and she longs to be part of the glam clique of snotty black rich kids. Then she is caught up in a class project on prejudice with three other students, and she sees close-up what's behind their public faces: Kelly, the rich, shy Puerto Rican; Jacinta, who lives in the projects; and Jessica, the snob. Meanwhile, Mina quarrels with her best friend (is it because Lizzie is white?) and worries that another friend, Michael, is being called "fag." The first book in the Del Rio Bay Clique series is too long, and its huge cast and constantly changing viewpoint slow things down further, as does the occasionally messagey sociology stuff. But the fast, funny colloquial talk (including e-mails and IMs) will probably pull readers into the contemporary friendship story, which revels in a rich diversity of race, color, and class.
