(The reason we put a sad face on Read it and Weep is because of weep, lol)
Anyways' Read it and Weep wasn't our favorite movies but it was okay. It is based on a book called, "How my private and personal diary turned into a best seller" (If you haven't seen the movie we suggest you not to read the short summary if you want it to be a suprise)
Read It and Weep begins with a teenage girl known as Jamie Bartlett writing in her tablet, a device in which a person is able to write down or illustrate his/her thoughts and ideas. The contents of her tablet are simple: The journal of an imaginary girl, who is pretty much like Jamie. Is is Jamie's alter ego. The characters in Jamie's fictional, yet very real novel, is represented by many of the people in her high school. For example, Sawyer Sullivan, the most popular and the meanest girl in school, is represented by the character in the book "Myrna". Yet her two best friends, Harmony and Lindsay, are represented by the two coolest girls in Jamie's novel.
The next day in school, Jamie acidentally turns in her journal as her homework. Ms. Gallagher, the teacher Jamie turned in her homework to, loved what she wrote, and published it as a novel. Jamie is so shocked as she realizes that her own personal journal is a book!!
The next day comes when Jamie practically becomes a celebrity in her school. By the end of the day, she already has a "handler" to organize her schedule. Jamie is invited to a party, with celebrities invited! She can't believe that she has a celebrity status in the nation! Jamie begins to get so busy with book signings and interviews, that she never has any time to spend with her three friends, Harmony, Lindsay, and Connor. Her friends actually start out understanding that she has a busy life and might not be able to spend time with them. Their friendship start to diminish with Jamie when she misses their rally to save whales.
One day, when Jamie is talking to an interviewer, she accidentally talks about Sawyer Sullivan instead of Myrna when asked about the evil witch in the book. All of her classmates heard it, since it was on live TV! Jamie goes to school in a disguise, but is discovered. Everyone in school realizes that each and every one of them is represented by a characted in Jamie's book and started to get infuriated with her.
The school dance is suddenly coming up, and Connor wants to ask Jamie if she wants to go with him. But Marco Vega, the guy in school who Jamie has a real crush on, wants to ask her out, too. So Marco goes to the pizza parlor the Bartlett's own, and asks Connor, who works there as well, where he could find Jamie. Connor lies to Marco about where Jamie is, because he knows Marco likes him, too.
When Jamie is in school, Marco says he wants to talk to her. Connor, knowing that Marco was going to ask her to the dance, tries to run up to Jamie before he does. But Marco gets there first.
