Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:When Kate Winthrop stumbles upon the Millbank Social Stock Market (the MSSM), she's horrified to discover that out of the 140 girls in her class, she's ranked a bleak 71. Determined not to accept her fate as a "junk bond," she and her best friends set out to make her the fastest rising stock on the Market — and their plan works. Kate is suddenly embraced by the most popular girl in school and attracts the attention of the hottest boy. But what begins as a fun social experiment quickly turns into an obsession, one that threatens to ruin her reputation, friendships, and a chance at first love. Will Kate survive the high and lows of the Market, or will her security crash and burn? Get ready for a bullish ride into the world of popularity in The Market, an irrationally exuberant new offering by the author of The Taker. Review:"By becoming a shallow 'it' girl, Kat risks becoming a player who is played. A lingering wrap-up is the only lag in this otherwise fun and chatty read." Kirkus Reviews Review:"Despite the book's predictability, readers will want to see the ultimately likeable Kate triumph over the popularity market." VOYA Review:"Teens who like Sixteen Candles and Can't Buy Me Love (which Kate watches) will dig this book." School Library Journal About the AuthorJ.M. Steele is the pseudonym for two New York entertainment industry professionals. Together they wrote The Taker and The Market. One author lives in New Jersey, the other in New York City.
