Fictional Boyfriend #26

This post is going to be probably pretty short since this guy really doesn't turn into a sweetheart till the very end of the book. So basically, I'm just promoting the book today.
Today's book promotion =] is about Saving Juliet.
I really like this book, just like all the other books on my list. It's really unrealistic, but still fun to read since it has such a neat plot. Somehow Mimi and her costar Troy [they are both in Romeo and Juliet the play] get stuck in Romeo and Juliet and actually go back to the 1600s or whenever the story takes place. They are at first seperated and Mimi gets ushered to the Capulet house since she is still wearing her costume from the play [she went outside for a breath of fresh air during her break and Troy ended up following her- both got sent to Shakespeare's play] and Troy got sent to the Monague house since he was wearing his costume from the play. They finally find each other and go through a list of events that happen in the play. Mimi befriends Juliet and Romeo and helps get them together and it's really cool because at the end, they don't die. They actually run off together.
So back to Troy...
Troy is this big time heartthrob who was basically doing the threatre a favor by playing Romeo in the play. Naturally, he's a jerk/snob. Poor Mimi was helpless, like all other adoring fans, but didn't show that she liked him. Then this whole go-back-in-time-during-a-play thing happened and she realized that she couldn't hide her feelings and well Troy was crazy about her anyways so it's all good.
I totally recommed this book.
