Reviews

This was an interesting read; I would consider myself a geek and an outcast so it was interesting look at high school Sociology. It was fascinating to peer into the different cliques and find that no matter who you are and what group you are in there is always the same gossiping and backstabbing. It’s sad but everyone was dealing with the same issues. For a non-fiction book I thought the narrative was excellent and Alexandra Robbins did of good job of telling a story; but I wish there was more about the psychology and sociology behind this; but I think she glossed over it too much to make it a lighter read.
