Goodreads Synopsis
Hope Chambers has a major problem. She’s spent the entirety of her four years of high school focusing on being perfect—perfect grades, perfect extracurriculars, perfect essays—to the point that she forgot to get a life. And now she’s perfectly boring.

She’s got exactly two weeks before her admissions interview for MIT to spice up her life and get a personality, dammit. And she knows exactly who can help her: soccer star and Mr. Popularity himself, Landon Watkins. But how does a nerdy, socially awkward girl ask the most charismatic guy in school to help her become interesting?

Saving his life in the school cafeteria is a pretty good start.

No one is more surprised than Hope when Landon agrees to help her. But what he proposes they do takes her so far out of her shell, she's practically in a different ocean. And when she starts falling for the last guy she ever expected to, it has her second-guessing every decision she's ever made...

Review
I received an Advance Reader Copy from the publisher. This in no way impacted on my view.

Hope Chambers is a perfect student, but being perfect on paper will only get you so far. To spice up her personality and application in the weeks leading up to her MIT interview, she enlists the help of soccer star Landon Watkins. Though Landon may be Mr Popular, following the death of his grandmother and his spiralling, his grandfather gives him an ultimatum, and helping Hope will work with that. Hope may only need help for a few weeks, but getting closer to Landon has opened her eyes to just what she's been missing.

When I read Gutter Girl, I knew that the series would be an enjoyable one. I liked both Hope and Landon, who felt like real teenagers, who weren't perfect by any stretch of the imagination, and made mistakes. Project Personality is full of laughs and teenage love, with a bit of angst thrown in too. A lovely teen romance.
