Book Review of Prep

Prep
Prep
Author: Curtis Sittenfeld
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback

I typically don't choose books that are described as "addictive as M&Ms" (the Boston Globe). But Prep was named as one of the top 10 books of the year by the New York Times, and was on special at Border's Books, so I picked it up. I'm so glad I did. It was a little too close to home for me and my experiences in high school, and is a complex and fascinating look into the mindset of a teenage girl. I could see this as a great read for parents, too. Highly recommend.
