It’s a very dramatic story about two high school mean girls who end up falling in love. Chloe was very annoying and I had no interest in her storyline. Shara was also pretty annoying, but her actions can be understood with some background information. I really wish this story focused on Smith and Rory because their love story was so much more interesting than Chloe and Shara’s. However, I did love the queer rep in a southern, very right leaning town and the students coming together to fight back (however that plot line wasn’t explored and I wish we saw what happened to the school’s reputation post this senior classes graduation).
