    Reviewed by Marta Morrison for TeensReadToo.com

    Emma was raised by her single mom in a small town in the middle of Illinois. She goes to a private Christian high school which is socially ruled by the local minister's daughter, Darci. She has a damaged relationship with her best friend, Joann, and her boyfriend, Colin.

    Everything was going fine until at Christmas Emma and Colin kissed. Even though the kiss was in a mall in a different town, it happened right in front of Joann's mother.

    Now Emma runs track and wants to get a full ride scholarship to Northwestern University. She wants out. Then Darci and her BFF, Kimberly, do something outrageous and Emma is the witness.

    Should she tell what she knows even if it means that she might lose her scholarship? She keeps trying to figure out what it means to do the right thing.

    I enjoyed this book very much. It has a great lesson about what is important, that being a person with a lot of integrity is more important than many other things in life. Emma has to do what is right and it is a scary thought.

    Read WHAT WOULD EMMA DO? It is one story that is going to stay with me for a long time.

    Fun Read

    Emma Proctor is a high school senior in "Nowhere, Middle America", as she calls it, and she hates it. Her goal in life is to get a track scholarship to an out of town college and a one way ticket out of Wheaton. Things seem to be going according to plan until something starts happening to the popular girls at TES, the private school she attends. Now, Emma doesn¿t know exactly what is going on but she does know how it started - and she knows people are lying. The only thing is, if she comes forward and tells what she knows, she could be kicked out of school and her dreams for the scholarship and life outside of Wheaton go down the tubes. How long will she be able to stand by and watch as one-by-one the "losers" of the school are plucked out and blamed for things she know they didn¿t do? Will she do the right thing or will she take the safe route to ensure her plans aren¿t jeopardized?

    Eileen Cook has created characters that are relatable and believable - she totally nailed teenage angst. What Would Emma Do? is a smart and funny book that had me laughing out loud. I couldn¿t put it down. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, easy read - regardless of one¿s age.

    I liked what Emma did

    This book was interesting enough to keep my attention and rile my emotions at the allotted points. It's an easy read and true to real life. It also helps that it is laugh-out-loud funny! I'd recommend it.

    One of My Favorite Books Ever!

    This book is one of those fun books you just need to read every once in a while. Take a break from those serious love, thriller, mystery books and sit back and enjoy What Would Emma Do?.

    Pretty Good

    This book was really good. It pissed me off at times with the characters not fessing up right away, but when everything unfolded it was great.

    What Would I Do? Read this book again and again.

    This book is laugh-out-loud funny, read-straight-through-in-one-sitting, un-put-down-able. Eileen Cook nails the workings of a small-town high school and writes characters that are so believable you want to yank them into your living room and tell them it will be okay. Emma is smart, witty and sincere and finds herself in quite the pickle. A small misstep is overblown by this small town and can only be resolved during an over-the-top, but completely realistic, televised revival.

    You've got to pick this up so you can find out what Emma did.

    Can relate to this book

    Through out this book i could totally relate to it. I even found myself crying at the end of the book because as a reader you feel so sorry for the main chactor. This book will change the way you view your friends, family, and the town you live in.

    THIS BOOK WAS PLAIN HORRIBLE!

    what would emma do, by eileen cook, was the worst book i ever read. i hated it with a burning passion. it was nothing about the back of the book. yes, she does kiss her best friends boyfriend but thats only a portion of it, its mostly about how a girl did drugs and drank at a party and fainted so all the girls want to be cool so they start doing it to. it was extremely stupid. the ending was bad to because it didnt even end. when i finished the book i felt like i wanted it to go. but it just ended with out saying what happened to her and her best friends relationship or anything. i hate this book oh so much and i'm pretty sure that if you read this book you will understand where im coming from. please do yourself a favor and DONT waste your money buying this book or waste your time reading it. it sucked. KBYE!

    It was OKAY

    This book reminded me of the play the Crucible, the story line was siimilar with some of the girls doing certain activities that they shouldnt be doing. The town they live is the kind of place where everybody knows everybody. This book had characters that you can really relate to, Emma was worried about getting away from her home town and Todd was the kid who didnt get a long with others because he was the new kid in town. Over all this book was good but i think it could have been better. I didnt really like the ending. I would recommend this books to my friends because its relatable and funny.
