Tera Lynn Childs' Oh. My. Gods.
This book is kind of like Mean Girls meets Percy Jackson, only not very good. Actually, the first half is ok, as a girl is forced to move w/ her mom and her new stepdad to a small island in Greece, where she has to go to school w/ kids who turn out to be descendants of the Greek Gods. And there's the usual crush on the popular guy w/ the popular bitchy girlfriend, and the quirky new friend, etc. It's slightly elevated by the protagonist being an athlete--she's a star runner and is working her way to a scholarship to USC--but the end is a terrible mishmash of YA fantasy cliches that just made me want to put it down and not even finish.
