Libby snatched this book back before I could grab any of my highlights, so I'm trying to write this from memory. Basically, it's a girl (and one boy and one nonbinary kid) gang story where the wronged unite to take back the night from popular boy (and SAer) Luis Ortega. Most of Luis's targets had not previously been friends, or even had a lot of friends, so this is a story of learning to trust, work together, and to enjoy having homies. The love stories aren't the focus, but they do exist (including in a we're-here-we're-queer kind of way).
