I've been dismissing this book till now, judging it from its cover or more precisely, all the covers of all the editions of this book featuring the same 'come-hither' look. If the characters are complex, the plotline is appealing, there is some realism in the story, and the protagonist is not a two-bit slut going into season every full moon(as in a lot of YA "romance" books, full of forbidden love and love-triangles/quadrilaterals, etc, flying around on Goodreads, all rip-offs of each other; see here: http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/22... ), I will certainly read it. My hate for the books mentioned within the parentheses comes from a time before I'd discovered Goodreads, when I'd finished Vampire Academy & Twilight and such, and a google search 'books like vampire academy' sent me to sites featuring apparently "enthralling" books with lots of shapeshifting, magic and romance. What came as a surprise (not a very pleasant one) was the vivid descriptions of a number of slutty activities, that repulsed me, a boy of 14 or so. I'd never found any such descriptions in Vampire Academy or Twilight, and was horrified to find these fully described in books that are apparently "books+like+vampire+academy". This is what led to my prejudice against all such books, which I still haven't overcome. And looking at the cover of 'Poison Study', when I find a girl (woman?) beckoning, I immediately dismissed it. This was when I first encountered this book, when I first discovered the enormous resource that is Goodreads, and had no friends who could give good ratings & reviews to this book and propel me to read it. Now, I come back few years later and find six friend reviews with good things to say of this book. And then my eye falls on the number of ratings and reviews of this book, I begin to think my earlier dismissal of this book was probably prejudiced. So, I will now have to read this book as soon as possible. (Probably August, 2012, as I've god 12th grade finals and medical entrance exams till then, and presuming I get admitted into a good medical institution, and haven't comitted suicide out of failure to do so.)

Geek Magnet is a story that anyone who has been through high school can relate to. Whether you were a jock, a geek, popular or somewhere in the between. Everyone knows what it’s like to have a crush on someone who you have never spoken too, to want to be a little bit more cool. Well this is exactly what KJ Miller is going through, but to make matters worse she is constantly being pestered by geeks. When she gets picked to be the stage manager for the schools spring musical, Grease, she has a whole new outlook on life. But where KJ goes, geeks are sure to follow. Finally seeing her way into the popular crowd, she seizes this moment. Her ticket is through Tama Gold “Queen of the popular crowd” and star of the musical. Tama is ready to help KJ get rid of the geeks and win over her crush Cameron. KJ and Cameron get closer, Tama and KJ become friends and the musical soon starts to fall apart. And if all that isn’t enough for a high school student to handle, there is still a secret she has kept from everyone except her best friend. Her family. An alcoholic father who is like a time bomb, a mother who doesn’t know what to do about anything and a little brother who is scared most of the time. When her family matters collide with her personal life everything goes to hell. The star of the show quits the day before the play, her mother is in denial about her father and worst of all, KJ’s first kiss is a complete disaster. Read the book to find out if KJ can win the guy of her dreams, ditch the geeks and have a happy family.
