Bethany Darling has always been popular. From day one, she's had that easy cool-girl charm on lock. And now that she's in college—and little sis Jessica is entering the middle school world—she's ready to share her secret: Bethany Darling's It List.

Step 1: Wear something different every day.

Step 2: Make the cheer team.

Step 3: Pick your first boyfriend wisely.

Step 4: Stick with the It Clique.

Seems simple enough—if you're Bethany. But Jessica's always been different than her big sis, and, frankly, she's not sure the list is for her. But when Bethany promises that life without the list is "total misery"—well, it's worth a shot, right?

Still, even as Jessica gives it her best effort, things just aren't going right. Her closet isn't up to the challenge, her cheer skills are worse for wear and the It Clique leaves her feeling like an outsider. Maybe Bethany's It List just isn't a fit. And maybe that's okay.

Once Jessica ditches the list and starts to embrace her differences—and the mascot costume instead of a pair of pom-poms—things fall back on track. After all, who needs popularity when you've got good friends and lots of laughs? Confidence is the *ultimate* "It Factor."

Starring Chloe East and produced by Disney darling Debby Ryan, Jessica Darling's It List is based on Megan McCafferty's hit book Jessica Darling's It List: The (Totally Not) Guaranteed Guide to Popularity, Prettiness & Perfection. Check out the trailer for yourself—and get ready to LOL at this totally relatable tale that shines a light on what "popularity" really means.
