ON YOUR MARK

Natalie Page is overlooked and unappreciated.
Yeah, sure, she can run fast.
Yeah, sure, all the boys love her...as a buddy.
Yeah, she has plans every weekend night...with her friends and their boyfriends.

GET SET

It's time for the world to sit up and take notice. When Natalie makes the varsity cross country team, it seems like the fast track to being cool. The popular girls notice her, the hunky captain of the boys team is giving her rides home. Natalie Page is off and running.

Then she starts to fail geometry. She has to get a tutor: a very annoying boy who thinks sports is for idiots. A very smart boy who thinks she's stupid. A very cute boy who already has a girlfriend and has no interest in her. A boy she told her parents she was dating.

GO!

Natalie Page can run. Now she has to decide how to finish.

This novel by Stephie Davis is not one to miss. A great story with likable characters that will keep you reading more. What more is the delightful gender bending, as implied by the title. The boy being very smart and succeeding in achademics while the female being the star athelete. The author sticks to light subjects, a nice turn of events from the everyday, making it a quick and enjoyable read.
