Fiery US government teacher Remi Covington is relentless in her desire to impart the genius of the democratic process to her students. Her so-called “academically challenged” high school seniors sometimes find her enthusiasm more than a little annoying—so, in an effort to teach her a lesson, they execute a brazen, high-tech, social media blitz touting her as the newest candidate in the upcoming US presidential race. Much to everyone’s surprise, Remi plays along with her students’ ruse—and in a nation weary of politics and career politicians, she unexpectedly finds herself the darling of the American public. As the campaign takes on a life of its own, Remi is forced to confront a myriad of long-held social biases and cultural clichés, and realizes she isn’t quite the woman she thought was. Vote for Remi is about a would-be a presidential candidate who, despite being all wrong—the wrong gender, the wrong party, and certainly the wrong social status—discovers that she might be exactly what America needs: someone with a passion for doing what is right.

About the Author
Biography
Leanna's first book, Vote for Remi, is due to be released Spring 2015. She lives in Fallon, Nevada and is currently working on her second novel.
This was one of those great books where the teens start out with issues. But then end with a purpose. It shows young people that if you put your mind to something and don't give up you can win at anything. It was a great book that schools should so use!
It also shows how one thing posted to social media can blow up for good or bad.
The characters were great all fully formed and wonderful as was the setting and plot/story.
