Maya has been part of
the group ever since the day Candace asked her if she wanted to "do
lunch" in the cafeteria. Yet when Candace suddenly deems her unworthy,
Maya's so-called friends just blow her off. While Maya just wants the
girls back like they used to be, she knows that can never happen-because
whatever Candace wants, Candace gets, no matter who gets hurt. Maya
isn't sure exactly where things went wrong for her, but she knows she
has to find out who her real friends are, and who among the girls she
can trust.
"[A] suspenseful and realistic portrayal of a
popular middle school clique . . . . Readers will identify with and
remember these characters."

Legacy by Kate Brian (B2)
The price of power...
After Cheyenne Martin's death, everyone at Easton Academy is struggling to recover from yet another tragedy--especially the girls of Billings Hall. With Cheyenne gone, they need to elect a new leader. And who better than Reed Brennan, the ultimate Billings Girls?
As the new Billings president, Reed suddenly has access to power she never imagined. Gossip is reported to her immediately, she has first dibs on everything from dining tables to dorm rooms, and Billings's most powerful alumnae are at her beck and call. So when Easton's students discover they're the only prep school on the East Coast not invited to this year's all-inclusive Legacy party, everyone turns to Reed to get them back on the list.
Reed is the most powerful girl at Easton.
She revels in her newfound status, but knows better than anyone that the Bilings leaders have a tainted legacy: Ariana was institutionalized, Noelle was expelled, and Cheyenne just died. History has a way of repeating itself at Easton, and now that Reed has everything she's ever wanted, she has everything to lose.

over-the-top drama in this addictive new book, set in suburban New York

and Whitestrip smile, Massie is the uncontested ruler of The Clique and
the rest of the social scene at Octavian Country Day, an exclusive
private school in Westchester, New York. Dylan Marvil: Massie's second
in command who divides her time between sucking up to Massie and
sucking down Atkins shakes to try to get rid of the extra fifteen pounds
that won't seem to leave her hips alone. Alicia Rivera: As sneaky as
she is beautiful, Alicia floats easily under adult radar because she
seems so 'sweet.' Would love to take Massie's throne one day. Just might
do it. Kristen Gregory: She's been dying to fit in ever since her
parents went broke. She's smart, hardworking and will insult you to
tears faster than you can say 'scholarship kid.' And then there's
Claire Lyons, the new girl in two-year old GAP overalls from Florida,
who is clearly not Clique material. The only problem is that Claire's
family is staying in the guest house on the Blocks' massive estate while
they look for a new home! Claire's future looks worse than a bad Prada
knockoff. But with a little luck and a lot of scheming, Claire might
just come up smelling like Chanel Mademoiselle...

Boy Proof by Cecil Castellucci (B1)
What happens when an
antisocial cinephile meets up with the worldly new guy at school — a
quick-witted artist who's savvy enough to see through her sci-fi
disguise?
Meet Egg. Her real name is Victoria Jurgen, but she's renamed herself after the kick-ass heroine of her favorite sci-fi movie, Terminal Earth. Like her namesake, Egg dresses all in white, colors her eyebrows, and shaves her head. She always knows the right answers, she's always in control, and she's far too busy — taking photos for the school paper, meeting with the Science Fiction and Fantasy Club, and hanging out at the creature shop with her dad, the special-effects makeup wizard — to be bothered with friends, much less members of the opposite sex. As far as Egg is concerned, she's boy proof, and she likes it that way. But then Egg meets a boy named Max, a boy who's smart and funny and creative and cool...and happens to like Egg. Could this be the end of the world — at least as Egg knows it?
