Book: Crushed Audrey and her best friends Lea and C.C. have just arrived at Jemison High from the one-room private school where they spent grades six through ten, where they performed Gilbert and Sullivan musicals, where they adored Edith Wharton. They're a nerdy little trio, so everyone is shocked when the handsome new guy, Wickham Hill, asks Audrey out.
Audrey is soon so smitten that she hardly pays any mind to the vicious underground newspaper at school-or to that strange lurking guy in World Cultures. Before long, it seems everyone at Jemison High is worried about getting crushed-by friends, by enemies, by a mysterious reporter.

A Very Good Book Review by Zolo9I just read this book today and thought it was very good. Audrey is a shy girl at first, but Wickham changes her. In some ways good, some ways bad.
My favorite character was Clyde. He genuinely cared about Audrey and loved his dying mother very much. Least favorite was Lea. She showed her true colors in the end. The girl was cold and calculating and had no sene of loyalty at all. The same goes for Wickham. He only wants (ed) both girls for their money.
The sense of character development was nice, showing Audrey adapting to her new home and, however slowly, letting go of Wicham.
Read it. :)
