The Other Girl by Sarah Miller

Molly McGarry has a "superpower". She can get inside people's heads. Sometimes it can be helpful, but she is about to learn that the only thing worse than being stuck in your boyfriend's head is being inside his new girlfriend's head. After Molly breaks up with Gideon because she thinks he likes another girl, a game of spin-the-bottle takes a turn for the worse. He shares a kiss with the reason for their break-up. Magically and unfortunately, the kiss knocks Molly out of Gideon's head and straight into the girl's head that he kissed, Pilar. Since she now experiences eveything they do together through Pilar's mind, she's desperate to get Gideon back. How can she work on getting him back while she's trying to get out of Pilar's head? And, how will she get Gideon back without telling him about her "superpower"?

The Other Girl is a humorous love story that any young-adult would enjoy to read. It tells an amazing story. The Other Girl will keep you wondering what's going to happen next. I think that the author, Sarah Miller, did a wonderful job expressing her ideas in the plot. She used great detail and her descriptions helped me picture the setting very well. The Other Girl was filled with many emotions. It made me feel as if I were a one of the characters. It is a wonderful novel and I recommend it to any young-adult reader who enjoys humorous or romance novels.

This book contained some mature content such as sexual scenes and language.
