The Upper Class

Hobson Brown, Taylor Materne, & Caroline Says do a fantastic job in The Upper Class, which is a great book for anyone 16 and older.

Nikki and Laine think that they have absolutely nothing in common, except for the fact that they are roommates at a prestigious boarding school, Wellington. The school is fulled of the social elite as will as rich kids who are simply screw-ups. Laine doesn’t seem to be remotely interested in being friends with Nikki and Nikki is confused as to why Laine is so distant. The girls not only have to learn to deal with each other but to survive in their new surroundings.

Laine is perfect for Wellington, at least that is what she has been told. Living the perfect country-club lives in Connecticut she is an athletic star and breathtakingly gorgeous. But her snobbish attitude and fear of failure keep her from making friends easily and many quickly label her as a snob. When her own teammates turn on her, she begins a downward spiral that they are more than happy to help her down.

Nikki is from what many call “new-money” and does not seem to belong at Wellington at all, and they make sure to let her know that. Sent there to keep her away from bad influences at home, she gets a lot more than she expected at the school, and not in a good way. Because she is always loud and a slight tease, she finds it almost impossible to get along with the girls at the school and they all bet on how long she will last. Will she be able to prove everyone wrong and make it through the semester?

This book is great for anyone who has ever had trouble fitting in and accurately portrays all the drama of high school! This book is a fun read that I suggest picking it up!
