Extraordinary*, Adam Selzer
*the true story of my fairy godparent, who almost killed me, and certainly never made me a princess
Jennifer acquires a fairy godparent (who prefers to be called a fairy godmofo, for good reason as it turns out), and makes three wishes. Unfortunately, as soon as Jennifer's wishes come true, he springs the catch on her: she has to kiss some other girl's boyfriend at the school dance or she will DIE.
I really liked this book a lot. My only big problem was the fact that Jennifer is supposed to be a Shakespeare nut, but she doesn't know that "Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon 'em," is a dick joke.
This makes this excerpt fucking hilarious:
And sometimes even working for it isn't enough. You really do have to have it thrust upon you to get you started.
