Ranking: Title: All American Girl Series: All American Girl, #1 Author: Meg Cabot Published: July 23, 2003

Samantha Madison is an average, cool Washington, D.C., teen: She loves Gwen Stefani (who doesn't?), can draw like nobody's business, and enjoys being opposite to her sister's annoying ultra-social personality. But when she ditches art class one day, she doesn't expect to be jumping on the back of a wannabe presidential assassin. 

Soon the young hero is receiving worldwide acclaim for her bravery, having dinner with her family at the White House, and is even being named teen ambassador to the UN. As if this weren't enough, she and David, the president's son, strike up a friendship that everyone wants the dirt on, which starts to give her romantic "frisson" feelings.

Unfortunately, Sam thinks her sister's boyfriend, Jack, is the true love of her life, and she makes a few wrong turns that could screw up what she's developing with David. Will she ever stop following what she knows and start following what she sees?
One way to describe this book is NICE and SWEET. If you guys love the movie, CHASING LIBERTY, THE PRINCE AND ME , and PRINCESS DIARIES well good news! This will definitely be your choice of book.

Well the story is about Samantha Madison, an ordinary teenager who has a great talent for drawing, loves to wear black and yeah kinda gothic style she can actually be.. Compared to her two extraordinary sisters she is always the one who is being left out and forgotten. Samantha’s older sister named Lucy and she is one of the most beautiful and popular girl in her high school.
