This book is fun to read, if you're a middle school student, but it actually got my son, Zac, interested in poetry. He writes the same sort of poems as Jeremy Bloom!

Her books are always filled with over-the-top drama. I do mean OTT. The writing in these earlier works is not the best and yet I like the bones of her stories and find myself rereading them (granted, the rereads are skims, but still). Perhaps it is because I do relish a bad someone or many someones in a P&P variation and you can always, always count on that in Tiffany Ward's stories.
Spoiler follows and I do mean it. Don't read it if you haven't read this story before. I found myself hunting for the story where Georgiana was plotting with Caroline & Wickham to have Caroline wed Darcy and then kill him so that they could all share the Darcy holdings/wealth and then G is married off and sent to India - found it here. I did show more mention OTT didn't I? show less

Gordon Korman was born in Montreal, Canada on October 23, 1963. When his 7th-grade English teacher told the class they could have 45 minutes a day for four months to work on a story of their choice, Korman began This Can't Be Happening at Macdonald Hall. He was also the class monitor for the Scholastic TAB Book Club, so he sent his novel to the show more address on the TAB flyer, and a few days after his 14th birthday, he had a book contract with Scholastic. By the time he graduated from high school, he had published five other novels and several articles for Canadian newspapers. He received a BFA degree from New York University with a major in Dramatic Writing and a minor in Film and TV. He has written over 75 books for children and young adults including the Swindle series, The Juvie Three, and two books of poetry written by the fictional character Jeremy Bloom.
