Prep School Confidential
by Kara Taylor
Ok, I definitely enjoyed this book way more than I anticipated I would!
Our main girl, Anne, has been expelled from her prep school in NYC for (accidentally) burning down the auditorium (she was trying to destroy a recent write-up for her less than stellar behaviour). She transfers to a boarding school in Boston, Wheatley Prep, and one week in, her roommate, Isabella, is found murdered. The plot centers around Anne trying to find out who killed Isabella and why. During her search, Anne starts to unravel many dark (and dangerous) secrets about her school and just how far the school will go to make sure the secrets stay buried.
I really enjoyed, Anne. Her character grew exponentially throughout the story which I did not expect. She goes from being a spoiled, self-centred, queen bee brat who does anything simply because she can without consequence to a brave and determined girl who does the right thing regardless of the consequence. You could see her way of thinking change throughout the book; she could’ve easily become the queen bee at Wheatley, just like she was at her old school, but she stirred herself away from that title.
The mystery surrounding the plot was great and had me CONSTANTLY wondering what was going to happen next. While I found the conclusion a teensy far-fetched, I wasn't disappointed. There were also some unsolved secrets that left a cliffhanger into the next book...and I’ll definitely be reading it to see what Anne discovers next!
