#BookReview of The Stand-In by Steve Bloom

The Stand-InWhen Brooks volunteered to be a stand-in for Burdette's cousin who got stood up for Homecoming, it was with the noblest of intentions-helping a fellow human being, free of charge. But when he gets a tip of more than three hundred bucks, word spreads quickly and Brooks seizes the opportunity to offer his impeccable escort services to super-wealthy parents who want their daughters to experience those big social events of senior year.

Besides, Brooks could use the cash to hire a tutor to get admitted to Columbia University. So what if along the way he goes along with a few minor deceptions and cuts a few moral corners? What could be the harm?





Steve Bloom is a screenwriter whose credits include James and the Giant Peach and The Sure Thing.

If I were a little...okay, a lot more outgoing, I'd totally be a stand-in!! The money would be great. It was interesting to read it from a male POV. A good change for me. The characterization was great. They were all the teenagers I remember having to deal with in high school. Good job!!
