The Gifted School by Bruce Holsinger
3.0

3.5 Stars

A new "school for the Gifted" is opening up in this Colorado town. This seemingly pits 4 long time friends and their families against each other vying for their kids to get a spot in this school. The parents and even the kids themselves compete against each other and let their morals go to do it. None of the characters are very likeable. I especially had a hard time with Beck and rolled my eyes everytime we came upon him. I wish we had more of Azra as she was the only charger I could really stand.
The book is a bit boring for most of it and didn't get a whole lot interesting until the end when a bit secret comes out because of a part of the admissions process.
