Two girls in an idllyic small town have decided that the numerous volunteer opportunities and good grades they have achieved will not get them into college. So they plan a fake kidnapping of one of them to gain national recognition. As the story evolves you start to feel a little creeped out by one of the girls and her willingness to play the part of victim. The ending has a twist that I didn't see coming and that is always nice to be surprised. There is some language in this book (many creative uses of words I have never combined before)and a scene between the two girls that sheds light on their relationship (I don't want to spoil that part but I found it tastefully done). Another librarian asked me to read it and wanted my opinion on if it was appropriate for a somewhat conservative middle school and I thought it was.
