This story of a teen aged girl from a middle class midwestern family who attends an eastern boarding school for her high school years has so many “book group discussion” topics. These include class, ethnicity, sex that means one thing for our heroine and another for the boy, a 4 year long crush, issues with parents, teachers, friends and the rigorous academics at a prestigious prep school. It is also a good example of what we hope our teenagers will one day understand that so much teenage angst will dissipate in college and beyond. The reader lives through all of this with Lee and, I believe, hopes that all will turn out well for this kind and introspective young woman, so sensitively narrated on Audible. I was sorry when the story ended.
