The plan is that Kate and her hottie-valedictorian-basketball-team-captain-boyfriend who’s already a Yale legacy shoe-in will be blissfully together in New Haven come fall. Katerina Larson – smart, determined, attractive – has exactly 11 days to ace (as always) her final exams, retake her already-highly-scored-but-not-quite-perfect SATs, write her personal statement college essay, and file her Yale application. My teenage daughter chose to forgo swimming with endless tropical fish in order to finish the book because she simply couldn’t put it down. That Cheva (full name Cherry Chevapravatdumrong, a Thai American originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan, now based in LA) has a day job writing for Family Guy probably makes her quite an expert in adolescent-speak-and-think. While I have to confess Cherry Cheva‘s sophomore novel is not quite the fabulous fun of her 2008 debut, She’s So Money, I’ll also insist that DupliKate (with the oh so perfect title!) is undoubtedly an entertaining read that will keep you quickly turning the pages.
