How to Teach Filthy Rich Girls
by Zoey Dean
This was the book that inspired the show "Privileged" on the CW. I have become a huge fan of that show, so when I saw the words "Based on the novel..." I ran to the bookstore to find the root of my new found love.
If you are a fan of the show, you will need to go into reading the book with the frame of mind that the show is LOOSELY based on the book. They basically took the name of the protagonist, the name of the twins, grandmother, chef and neighbor, kept the attitudes of them all the same and that is where the similarities end. Charlie does not exist, her parents are together and living in New Hampshire (not just her father living in Florida) and her sister is not the "loser" of the family - she is a successful model who bests Megan in everything but brains. A far cry from the way the show has portrayed her.
With that being said, if you watch the show and can forget about Charlie, or forget about Lily stealing bracelets, and add a new cast of characters then you will find yourself with a great story of self discovery and opening your eyes to a world you may never have known. This is a great beach read to lose yourself in a world unlike your own.
