The DUFF

(Designated Ugly Fat Friend)

Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper may not be the prettiest girl in her high school, but she has a loyal group of friends, a biting wit, and a spot-on BS detector. She’s also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush.

 

But things aren’t so great at home and Bianca, desperate for a distraction, ends up kissing Wesley. Worse, she likes it. Eager for escape, Bianca throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with him.

 

Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out Wesley isn’t such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she’s falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.

Praise

Praise for The DUFF:

A New York Times bestseller

 

"[A] well-written, irreverent, and heartfelt debut."

Publishers Weekly

"A complex, enemies-with-benefits relationship that the YA market has
never seen before... Keplinger scores a first for a genre in which
vampires and dystopian futures rule. Her snarky teen speak, true-to-life
characterizations and rollicking sense of humor never cease in her
debut."—Kirkus Reviews

"Kudos to the 18-year-old Keplinger for writing a heroine whose
complicated relationship with sex is honest and heartbreaking. Expect
to be recommending THE DUFF to friends for years to come."—Romantic Times

"Edgy and compelling. I couldn't put it down!"—Simone Elkeles, New York Times bestselling author of Perfect Chemistry
