Was this book written especially for me? It’s basically a Mean Girls fanfic with a whole bunch of musical theatre references, especially Phantom. I’m never going to be able to listen to Think of Me without crying, thinking about this book.

With this and Honor Society, 2022 was a great year for stories about academic rivals pulling elaborate Machiavellian plans to sabotage eachother, and also staging a musical.

The only downside is that Chloe is such an awful person for so much of the book that it was really hard to like her. Even though she improved at the end, it was still like, how did Shara forgive her for some of that???
