The Clique is the first book of many in its amazing series. I have read most of the series and the books keep on getting better and better! This book is perfect for teenagers who love drama and is into a little bit of romance. When reading the book, I knew what the character's feelings, thoughts, and plans throughout the entire story. This book compares our life and how high school can be tough surrounded by cliques. This book is a MUST READ!!
