michellekmartin 's review for:
Election
by Tom Perrotta
3.5 stars | A quick and punchy read with plenty of commentary on how our society treats female politicians, even on the high school level.
Tracy Flick is an eager student who has been determined to become student body president for years. A teacher, with a simmering grudge against her, recruits golden boy Paul Warren to run in opposition to her and tampers with the election results.
I liked that this book was told from multiple perspectives. The short chapters from multiple characters' points of view made for a quick and punchy reading experience and painted a picture of this high school and some of the students and teachers there.
I'm looking forward to reading the sequel and finally watching the movie!
