Upon entering high school, Sari and Jess expect to encounter popularity contests. Almost immediately, Sari sets her focus on the Big Man On Campus, David Cole, who is dating the popularity queen, Thea. Jess is worried that Sari will end their friendship for the "in" crowd. As Sari blantantly, recklessly persues David, she catches his attention but he doesn't leave Thea. She also earns herself a reputation that is whispered about in bathrooms and scrawled on stall doors. Then the "Prada Mafia" tricks Jess into revealing a secret, which thrusts both of them into an unwanted spotlight and clinging to their friendship for dear life. This book is incredibly real and has characters with whom you can easily identify, whether you're a Sari, a Jess, or a Thea.
