An extremely accurate look at high school life from the girl that is not the most popular one in the crwoed. The Indiana girl that steps from her family to attend the prestigious Ault School (a boarding school) in Massachusetts.

Very accurately portrays the complicated relationships with teachers, intense friendships with other girls, and that all-consuming obsession with the classmate thats not quite boyfriend, but more than a simple crush.
Great portrait of the universal pains and thrills of adolescence - brings it back for those of us who've been there.
