Oh, Marcus Flutie
I have a confession to make. I have just now read the Jessica Darling books by Megan McCafferty. I liked them quite a bit. Okay, I loved them.

Where several Texas librarians write about books and stuff.
Welcome to Oops!
Oops...Wrong Cookie is a book and reading blog maintained by Patti and Joanna with help from several friends around the country. We pretty much read everything, but have a strong focus on reviewing young adult literature and other (sometimes random) book or library related information.
Please note: We don't participate in blog tours. The original purpose of Oops was to provide a means to practice reviewing books and engaging in book discussions. Please leave a comment!
Patti is now an assistant branch manager in Austin after working for many years as a teen services librarian. She is very active with the Texas Library Association, serving twice on the Local Arrangement Committee (go Placement Center go!), she has served on the Tayshas High School Reading list in two different capacities and is currently serving as Chair of the Young Adult Round Table. She can be reached at countdownkid at gmail dot com.
Joanna is a teen services librarian turned stay at home mom of two boys. She lives in Florida where she can often be found visiting the local libraries and appreciating that they always have something fun for her boys to do. In her illustrious 9 year librarian career, she was active in the Texas Library Association (serving as Chair of the Young Adult Round Table), a SXSW Dewey Winburne Community Service Award Honoree, and a totally rock star NYT Librarian of the Year. (*high five*!)

Oh Kerry! Welcome to the club! It took me a couple years, but Patti finally got me to read them after the 3rd book.
Oh that is excellent Kerry! They are fabulous, the first two are essential reading (in my mind anyhow).
Enjoy!
I am also in love with Marcus Flutie. I'm almost proud to be living in NJ because of him... almost.
I am a fan of the series and mystery that is Marcus Flutie. There are many more who admire him as well.
