"Scarlett Fever" by Maureen Johnson

Scarlett Martin is back in another funny adventure in New York City. She is still working for the theatrical agent, her brother is still auditioning for roles he never seems to get, her sister is still broken up with Chip and working retail, and her younger sister seems nice. The hotel is still falling about and rarely has guests. In the midst of all this we come to adore Scarlett, her attitude and her resilience. She is smart, strong and self-reliant. She also discovers a new love interest-Max. However, Johnson ends the book not in the way we might expect. Lola flies off to Las Vegas to marry the rich ex-boyfriend and Scarlett finds that her first love from "Suite Scarlett" is back and he still loves her. But how does Scarlett feel? The door has definitely been left open for a third book to answer all the questions. Perfected suited for middle schoolers.
