Emma
G. is CRAZY about Aaron, lead singer of Boyz3000. Of course, she
doesn’t actually know him, but so what? Feelings are feelings. That
is until Josh appears… and he’s soooooo CUTE. Navigating her two
crushes and her middle school life, especially with eighth-grade
hater Renee around, is a challenge. And oh yeah, she’s got to earn
money for an AWESOME trip to the Bahamas to see the band of her
dreams. Hello???? How much can one thirteen-year-old take???

Excerpt:
OMG!!!
My heart was racing like it was going crazy. Lights began flashing
from everyone’s phones and people were Instagramming pictures of
the band to their friends and posting them. I tried to take pictures
but my hands were shaking so much from excitement that the pictures
were blurry. Jenny wasn’t taking any either because she was shaking
too. Everyone was screaming and yelling and crying. Two girls fainted
and were carried out to get some water.
I was
screaming too. I took a selfie of me screaming and then one of Jenny
screaming. Her mouth was open so wide I think I was taking a picture
of her tonsils!!!
I could
see all the Boyz3000 faces very clearly because we were so close up,
but especially Aaron’s. I was watching him and trying to take his
picture while I was screaming, but my hands were still shaking too
much to get good shots, so I stopped trying and just watched him. His
expressions were sooo sincere as he sang. His cute hair was falling
over his eyes and those eyes were sooo adorable. And his collar was
open on his shirt, and I could even see the sweat on his neck.
The
drummer, Pete, was setting a great rhythm, and Cory, the bass player
that Jenny loves, was twirling and leaping, and then he was leaning
back, playing his bass like he was the greatest rock star in the
universe. And then Jenny started screaming even louder than before,
and she was jumping up and down and her arms were waving at the bass
player!
And
then…
Boyz3000
started to come down onto the runway that we were right next to.
Everyone
was trying to reach out to them and I was right on the aisle and
reaching out too.
And then
it happened…
