Hot Lunch by Alex Bradley

a hilarious novel about friends, food fights and love.

Blue haired sophomore Molly can’t stand most of her classmates at her hippie-run high school. When she’s forced to collaborate with Cassie (who’s too perky & normal) their bickering escalates into a food fight in the cafeteria. Because Sunshine Day isn’t your average high school the girls’ punishment isn’t detention – it’s working in the cafeteria as lunch ladies.

Through this experience Cassie & Molly slowly become friends and other amusing characters pop in to help. There’s also a minor plot line involving romance.

This was a quick, enjoyable read and also, at the end contained a message about making school lunches more nutritious. Reminded me of “Vote for Larry” by Janet Tashijean.
