About this ebook
A tween goes to an all-girls boarding school for a fresh start only to get entangled in a series of dares from a mysterious pen pal in this bestselling middle grade drama—now with a fresh new look!
Scarlett’s got a secret—one so big her mother’s shipping her off to a prestigious all-girls boarding school. There, everyone is into academics and extracurriculars, and nobody knows about what she’s trying to leave behind.
But Scarlett is out of her depth. Her interests (beauty, fashion, and romance novels) seem to put her at a disadvantage here, and her popular, studious roommate Crissa dislikes her immediately. As Scarlett struggles to settle in, she gets assigned a pen pal at the all-boys boarding school for class—and starts receiving mysterious letters assigning ominous tasks with threatening consequences if she messes up.
As Scarlett navigates friendships, academics, her place on the basketball team she was forced into, and the mysterious game she can’t escape, she realizes that maybe an all-girls school isn’t so boring after all.

I love this book its what alot of teen girls go through when they go to a new school and have to make new friends and have to get with the program of things. The worst part is that its an
" ALL GIRLS SCHOOL" yuck how is a girl supposed to survive with no guys to flirt with or date well unless your a lesbian but there are none in this story.

This book was the best! Scarlett, the rich girl, going poor really made me realize that rich people don't always remain rich. Also, I loved all those crazy tasks that Crissa, Scarlett's roommate, made her do all to keep her secret about her father stay a secret. Finally, the romance in the story held Scarlett's character blossom throughout the story.

It starts out with a high school girl freshman dealing with family issues, funny situations, and working hard to get success, and doing it all with style!
