It's 2005, when we could burn CDs and DVDs on our computers but we weren't at the Spotify and Pandora realm of things yet. You got bootleg DVDs of stuff you couldn't easily find at your video store, like anime. There's always a chance that what you order isn't what you actually get. Four friends who feel like outcasts get a copy of a racy anime and realize they might be able to make some money by selling it at their Catholic school. Hidden tensions within the group erupt one night at a party, and things are never the same. 

This book doesn't have the most uplifting ending, but it has one that feels very real. I'm concerned about one of the characters, Brooke.
