It truly was the Regency era Mean Girls novel of my dreams. Like Mean Girls, Lex Croucher has flipped the idea of a “typical girl drama” on its head to make some important statements about friendship, trust, and identity without sacrificing any of the humor along the way. I will definitely be rereading this book, and encouraging my friends to read it as well. It’s all the escapism of Pride and Prejudice, but written through a modern lens. (Definitely note the content warnings before picking this up!)
Graphic: Drug use and Alcohol
Moderate: Sexual assault and Violence
