Dance Party: Jennifer Echols

This week, we're ditching the duel and focusing on the dance party.  That's right, no competition--just your sweet dance moves.  The theme this week is Jennifer Echols books with the fun, the swoon and the disco chicken:


There are plenty to choose from, from her earlier rom-coms to Going Too Far and The One That I Want.  We'll get you started with two of our picks and then you guys can fill out the form with your submissions.  Let's bust a move.

Noelle: When I think of Jennifer Echols, I think of summer and boys.  Sure, many of her books take place during the school year but details, details. There's just something about the feel of her books that says sunshine and hormones to me.  Hence:


I'm playing The Ataris with their Boys of Summer cover.  If I had to choose a specific Echols book for this song it'd be The Boys Next Door.

Maggie: I love how energetic and vibrant Echols' characters are. If they're not wakeboarding, they're snowboarding or drum majoring. Her books always feature colorful side characters as well so I'm going with:


Don't Go Breaking My Heart by the cast of, ahem, Ella Enchanted! I'm picking this song for Adam and Lori in Endless Summer. See, it's okay if we both picked Adam and Lori because Echols had the foresight to write two books with them!

Your turn!
