The Zoe Zone-Book Review

Title: The Zoe Zone(Geek Chic)

Author: Margie Palatini

Main Characters: Zoe Zinevich

Summary:
Zoe Zinevich was a 11 year old girl who was going to be 12. She has absolutely no sense of fashion and are detested by 'The Bashleys'(Brittany and Ashley) who were fashionistas. One day a magazine from New York came to take photographs of the school. The magazine was called 'U Grl'. Who were they photographing? 'The Bashleys'! When one of the crew member asked for some stuff from their lockers that they could include, Zoe immediately volunteered. Her locker was full of geeky stuff. Including owl pellets. The crew took pictures of all her weird stuff and her weird outfit(a fedora and a shirt that was her great-grandfather's). When the magazine came out, she became a laughing stock. A few days later, U Grl called Zoe to meet up. Her younger sister thinks that they will give her a total make-over. But when she arrived, she was shocked to see everybody wearing exactly what she was wearing the day the other day...
