Book Summary:
Top Five Things That Are Ruining Chloe’s Day
5) Working the 6:30 a.m. shift at GoodFoods Market
4) Crashing a cart into a customer’s car right in front of her snarky coworker Sammi
3) Trying to rock the “drowned rat” look after being caught in a snowstorm
2) Making zero progress with her crush, Tyson (see #3)
1) Being accused—along with her fellow teenage employees—of stealing upwards of $10,000
Chloe would rather be anywhere than locked in work jail (aka the break room) with five of her coworkers . . . even if one of them is Tyson. But if they can band together to clear their names, what looks like a total disaster might just make Chloe’s list of Top Ten Best Moments.

Shannon's Thoughts:
In honor of Chloe's penchant for list-making, I thought I would do my top five things I like about this book:
1. Chloe's lists! I'm a sucker for lists myself, so I felt an instant kinship with Chloe.
2. The diversity - especially where the romance is concerned. Chloe is redhead and her crush, Tyson, is black. There is also a
3. The "Breakfast Club" feel. I love when characters who come from VERY different backgrounds find a common bond.
4. It is fun, quirky and just the right amount of fluff for an easy rainy day read.
5. The romance takes a backseat to everything else. It is a very sweet romance, but I am glad that there was more going on than just focusing on Chloe obsessing about her crush.
Fans of contemporary YA should check this one out!

This does sound really fun, and I LOVE lists. :)
