This is an excellent story. I could NOT put the book down!
It's about a "nobody" named Annie. She's considered a "nerd" by all the popular kids because she isn't gorgeous, she has braces and pimples and doesn't wear expensive clothes. The popular kids tease her constantly and do cruel things to her. She does, however, have very loving parents...

One day one of her fathers many wacky inventions goes haywire from a thunderstorm and she gets transported to an alternate universe where her name is Ayla and she is the Queen B of her high school, is beautiful, has a hot boyfriend and a lot of money. Problem is, her "dad" is someone else entirely in this world. And her family hates each other. She also is coming to understand the "dark side" of being popular... When she finally meets someone that can help her get back to her own world - will she make the decision to go or stay?

This was a great read - I highly recommend it!
