The Secret of Jane's Success
New York Minute (Prequel)
By Kylie Adams


   Jane's story is a prequel to the movie novelization of New York Minute starring Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

   Jane has definite plans for her life. She's going to be a volunteer on a congresswoman's election campaign, then she plans to get elected student body president, and to culminate the year with a fellowship to Oxford University in London. Very proper and well organized Jane, drinks green tea and reads the newspaper before school, keeping strict track of everything in her day planner. While her wild natured twin, Roxy, is always late, skips school, and constantly loses things.

   The action really gets going when Jane uncovers a scandal, and then falls for the guy who is running against her for student body president. The fast action plot will keep you reading and the girl's antics will keep you laughing and wanting more. How can two girls get into so much trouble? Their solutions are unique and you'll meet some great new characters. Watch for more books in this series.
