review 1: I was attracted to the book cover design, very nice, then I read the blurb, it captures you. Cyrie Bergerac, 17 year old, doesn’t like her nose, she thinks it’s very big and wants to do a plastic surgery (for her nose). Her best friend Leyla supports her on everything and thinks she pretty and doesn’t need a nose surgery. Eddie (a.k.a Rox), Cyrie’s crush is a popular guy at school. He likes Leyla and even help them get together, Cyrie never told Leyla that she likes Eddie, if she did all this wouldn’t happen, but if these events didn’t happen Eddie wouldn’t know the truth between the emails and that Cyrie likes him. At the end, they end up being with each other.
review 2: This is a cute, fun, witty and quick read. A modern take on the Cyrano de Be
... morergerac tale, At Face Value is like a any other romantic high-school comedy with seventeen year old, Cyrie Bergerac falling in love with someone she shouldn't.I liked Cyrie, who is a near-perfect student with outstanding grades, a great relationship with her parents and best friend. However, her appearance is less than flawless. Specifically, her nose, and it's size.Although its completely predictable from the beginning, it is a sweet book to enjoy over the weekend with clever, enjoyable characters and laugh-out-loud moments. less
