Summary:

"I live on the outside. There's something to be said for having nothing."

Andie Walsh is pretty and smart. She has her own style and a kind of pride as unique and personal as the way she dresses. But to the rich kids at school, Andie's a nothing--a "zoid."

Andie couldn't care less what the richies think. She's happy with her own friends, like devoted, goofy Duckie Dale. Then Blane McDonough--the ultimate richie--enters her life.

Never in a million years did Andie dream she'd fall for a guy like Blane. But when they're together, nothing else seems to matter. Until Blane asks her to the prom--and his crowd starts pressuring him to dump her. Nobody said love was easy, but does it have to hurt so much?
