Clique Bait by Ann Valett sounds like a page-turning revenge story. I am a huge Jenny Han fan, so I am intrigued by the Burn for Burn comparison in the synopsis. Friends that stick up for one another are characters that I love. It shall be interesting to see how the romance plays into the story.
Clique Bait by Ann Valett
Title: Clique BaitAuthor: Ann Valett
Genre: Contemporary, Mystery, Young Adult
Publisher: HarperTeen
Publication Date: April 28, 2020
Chloe Whittaker is out for revenge.
Last year her best friend Monica’s life was unceremoniously ruined by the most popular students at their high school, so this year Chloe plans to take each and every one of them down. She’s traded in her jeans and T-shirts for the latest designer clothes, erased anything on social media that would tie her to Monica (and blow her cover), and carefully figured out how she will befriend the members of the clique, find out their deepest and darkest secrets, and reveal them to the world.
Chloe has the perfect plan . . . but there’s one thing she didn’t prepare for. And that’s falling for someone she’s determined to destroy. The closer she gets to uncovering the secrets the in-crowd is determined to cover up, the more she realizes that she is going to have to choose between betraying her oldest friend or the boy who’s captured her heart.
Book Qoutes: Clique Bait
Monica and I had figured out that everyone could be sorted out into one of five different groups, or levels, as we called them.
The thing that made Level Ones so powerful extended much deeper than their fortunes.
