This book was so good. I read it in two days.It shows how girls can be real trifling, and how your so-called friends can really be against you. Be careful cause your friends just might not be who you think they are. This books shows why envy is one of the 7 deadliest sins. Also how strong and bad jealousy is. THIS IS A MUST READ!!! EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS. ESPECIALLY TEENS. ESPECIALLY THE ONES LOOKING FOR ACCEPTANCE!!! 10 STARS!!! I wil be waiting for her next novel. Great debut album Lisa Lennox!!!

Jealousy

This was definitely a good book. It amazes me how jealous people can be of one another. Laci basically had it all but she still wanted to fit in with her peers, and although they took her in, only because they knew she had money, they were planning deceit from the beginning. Like the saying goes "Misery loves company". I dont wanna give away the book but its definitely a must reader.

THE BEST

This was a very very very good book, I finished it in one day. Now I am asking all my friends to please read it. I refuse to share my copy, because I will be re-reading it again.

Outstanding

This book was great. The story was so realistic and it was easy to visualize the story. Although I have never experienced any type of drug, the detailed descriptions were so real. The story had me so upset when they set Laci up. I could not believe people could be so cruel. All of that vicious behavior by Laci's so called friends all came from jealousy. It was very sad when such a good girl, trying to grow up doing the right thing was tricked into a world that she had no control of. It was very upsetting that she was a virgin and by the end of the story she was considered a crack ho by many who had no idea of the real person she was. She could never experience that special first time because she was high out of her mind through all of her experiences. But the end settled some scores. It just goes to show you, when you do things to intentionally hurt others , it is destined to come back around. I think this book is also a good example to those who may be curious or contemplating experimenting with drugs. Say no to drugs! It's not worth it. Also never do anything that goes against your better judgment just to fit in with friends. As you can see in Laci's case, they were not her friends at all. I look forward to Lisa's next book.
