(Outside Reading #1) Book: Private

I just started reading a book called Private by Kate Brian. The book so far is about a girl named Reed Brennan that is a sophmore at a new school called Easton Academy. Easton Academy is a very expensive school but the truth is, Reed Brennan is searching for a new life, new friends, a new start. She was a tomboy in her old town and had to deal with her pill-popping mother. She moves in and meets her roommate Constance Talbot. She is a real talker, blabs all the time, all about herself. She also meets a boy named Thomas Pearson who ran into her in the hallway. They made small talk and he complimented her on many things. On her first day at lunch, Reed meets the Billings girls-the girls that live in the Billings dorm. The Billings dorm is where all the top-class students stay. The captains and only upperclassman that are "special" get to live there. Right away Reed has a dream that she wants to be a Billing's girl. She believes that will solve all her problems. 

If I was in Reed's situation, first of all i'd be very intimidated by all the people there and I doubt right away I would want to be a Billings girl. The Billings girls seem stuck up and mean but thats just the vibe I get after reading information about them in the book. It's weird because she always used to be a tomboy at her old school so it's interesting that she wants to change and become a Billings girl right away. I'm very excited to read this book though and I've heard from many people that it's one of their favorites. I guess we'll have to see if Reed actually becomes a Billings girl and what she does to try to get in their group.
