On Libby Bennet’s To Do list:

•Put that arrogant Will Fitz in his place. He bet Libby $50 that she couldn’t find a date to prom. Maybe Libby wasn’t interested in prom before, but now, it’s on.
•Help her heartbroken sister, Jane. Teo’s been in love with her for years, and now, when Jane’s finally interested, he blows her off. Jane insists Teo has moved on, but Libby knows there is no way he could have forgotten her sister so easily.
•Figure out what to do about Jeremiah, the new guy in school that her mother invited to LIVE WITH THEM. Every day he’s the star of his own personal play--is there any way to convince him that he can’t go out in public dressed as the Rat King from The Nutcracker?
•Spend more time with George Moreland, with his tattoos, dimples, and rebel streak that make Libby’s insides go all liquidy. He’s not into prom, but when he’s around, maybe Libby isn’t either.
•Wait, no. Find a date to prom. Focus, Libby.

Hilarious, witty, and fun, First Impressions is a YA twist on Pride and Prejudice about what happens when To Do lists fail, longstanding judgments crumble, and people no longer fit into the boxes we made for them.
