Harper, Sophie and Kate are about to commit the ultimate suburban sin - bailing on college to pursue their dreams. Middlesbury-bound Becca is convinced her friends have gone mad until they remind her that she just might not have a dream of her own. Harper is going to be the next Jane Austen. Or Sylvia Plath. Or Plum Sykes. Figuring out which should be easy. It's living with the lie she told her three best friends that's going to be hard. Kate doesn't know exactly what she wants but knows she won't find it at Harvard. Maybe the answer is in Paris or Athens or anywhere where she can be someone other than the girl with perfect grades, perfect hair and the perfect boyfriend. Sophie is a star. She already has the looks, the talent and a list of demands for her dressing room. Now that she's wrangled a furnished guesthouse in Beverly Hills it's only a matter of time until she's discovered - unless she isn't! Becca is dysfunctional - at least her family is. Which is why she wants to escape the drama and get to college. But Becca's friends know she needs more than a place on the ski team and a cozy dorm room. They know she needs to fall in love.
This took me back to middle school when I read it for the first time. Four best friends discover their dreams, their passions and themselves and those are things you can't always learn in college...
