"That's What's Up" Book Commercial
Ever written about your feelings in a journal or diary? Imagine your ex boyfriend stealing your diary, showing it to his buddies, and then blackmailing you forcing you to do everything in your diary, changing mostly everything in your life. Well in the book, One Night That Changes Everything, author Lauren Barnholdt writes about a senior girl named Eliza who has written lists in a personal journal about things that she is afraid to do in her life. She writes about being afraid to go to an under 21 club in the city, sing karaoke in front of a bunch of strangers, ask a random hot guy to dance, stuff like that. She has been writing in this book since middle school, and after a nasty break-up with her cheater boyfriend, the journal goes missing. Eliza's ex, Cooper, is part of a secret society in their high school that is a bunch of jerky jock guys. Cooper's pals stole Eliza's journal from her locker at school and is now blackmailing Eliza to do every embarrasing thing in that book. Now, don't you think that would change everything? Will Eliza do everything on her list and overcome her fear?
