Read It and Weep is The Disney Channel's 64th original movie. This comedy/adventure tells the story of Jamie a regular teenage girl who accidentally turns her personal, private journal in as her homework. The teacher loves what she's written – a story chronicling the adventures of a confident and cool teenager named Isabella ("Is") - and it ends up getting published as a novel. When the book turns into an overnight success, Jamie can't help but get caught up in her newfound celebrity status. Between book signings, interviews and her new boyfriend, Jamie is struggling to find a balance between her old life and her new life. She doesn't want to lose her friends or change who is she, but she is haunted by Is, the star of her novel and her alter ego, who is pushing her to embrace her life as a celebrity. The movie is based on the book How My Private, Personal Journal Became a Bestseller by Julia DeVillers.
