Review of 24 girls in 7 days
By Lisa Tinglum

Prom. The big night every girl and, in Jack Grammar’s case, boy has been dreaming of since day one. It is only seven days until Prom night and everyone has a date. Everyone except Jack. And the only things sadder than Jacks love life are little kids that get lost in supermarkets and old people who lose their glasses on top of their head. So Natalie and Percy, Jack’s two best friends, decide to intervene by posting an ad online called MyNewPromDate@yahoo.com. In 24 girls in 7 days, by Alex Bradley, Jack has to choose between a list of twenty-four girls in only seven days. Initially Jack would rather have nothing to do with this online ad but as he gets sucked in and things will change for him forever.
This hilarious book is great for any high school students who have been without a date for a big dance. This fast paced book keeps the reader on their toes and continues to twist the plot to make the end unpredictable. Because of this once the book is picked it up won’t be put down until it ends. The readers are advised to set aside some time to sink into Jacks life as he finds out if this online ad was a good idea after all.
