"Twenty-five-old Lacey Whitman is very, very busy. She is juggling two fabulous careers, in NYC, is very single, is very social, and has very big plans for her future. The last thing she expects to find out after a routine checkup is that she's the next Angelina Jolie, and not in a good way. Lacey has inherited the breast cancer gene. She's got two choices: watch and wait, or say goodbye to her breasts, forever. It's a choice no woman wants to make. But Lacey's breasts have hardly gotten to first base, much less hit a home run. Partly as a coping mechanism, partly as a way to take back some control of her life, Lacey and her friends create a bucket list--everything she wants to do with and for her breasts before a possible surgery. Thus begins the most emoational and exhilarating year of her life: one of self-exploration that will help her grow up, fall in love, and define her relationship to herself and to her body. Both were things she thought she had a handle on, but now she's learning that letting go might give her the future she really wants. This is one bucket list you'll never forget."--Back cover

C'è qualcosa che non faresti in cambio della bellezza? Evie, Krista e Willow sono tre ragazze normali - e amiche inseparabili. Quando una vecchia conoscenza regala a Krista una boccetta contenente un misterioso liquido viola, lei non immagina che la sua vita stia per cambiare di colpo. Poche gocce del bizzarro intruglio e si ritrova in possesso di un visetto da bambola e di un corpo perfetto - non un semplice upgrade delle sue sembianze normali, ma qualcosa di completamente diverso e perfettamente inspiegabile: la grazia incarnata, l'ideale divenuto in realtà. Nel timore che l'effetto del Pretty - così le ragazze battezzano la strana pozione - possa svanire all'improvviso, Krista non perde tempo nel presentarsi a un provino che, tra esilaranti disavventure ed equivoci, le spalanca le porte di un'improbabile carriera d'attrice. Ma proprio quando sono a un passo dal realizzare i propri obiettivi e le fantasie più sfrenate, le tre amiche si ritrovano faccia a faccia con le debolezze e le contraddizioni che le rendono irrimediabilmente loro stesse. Perché non c'è avventura più grande che imparare ad amare e ad amarsi.
A fierce, feisty, and wonderfully entertaining (Scott Westerfeld, author of "Uglies") debut with a magical twist about three ordinary, regular girls who suddenly have their fantasies come true or do they? Best friends Evie, Krista, and Willow are just trying to make it through their mid-twenties in New York. They re regular girls, with average looks and typical quarter-life crises: making it up the corporate ladder, making sense of online dating, and making rent. Until they come across Pretty, a magic tincture that makes them, well...gorgeous. Like, supermodel gorgeous. And it s certainly not "their "fault if the sudden gift of beauty causes unexpected doors to open for them. But there s a dark side to Pretty, too, and as the gloss fades for these modern-day Cinderellas, there s just one question left: "What would you sacrifice to be Pretty?" Wildly irreverent, blatantly sexy, and observed with pitch-perfect wit, "The Regulars" is fresh compulsive reading from a bright new voice (Brenda Bowen, author of "Enchanted August") in fiction, perfect for fans of Jennifer Close and Kevin Kwan."
