Are you looking for a realistic view of teen life in a fictional setting? Do you have a teen girl who enjoys Christian fiction? Then Shelley's series about three friends is the perfect choice. We are introduced to Lissa as she begins life at a high end boarding school where nearly everyone comes from families with money. We see the ins and outs of dorm life and how teens struggle with their faith. I honestly felt like I was snooping into a real teen's world. Shelley is able to capture the language and life of teens everywhere and makes these character's lives believable. Lissa has been a believer for several years, but her desire to remain at the top with the popular kids has her making very poor choices. Thankfully, her roommate, Gillian is straight with her and tries to challenge Lissa's choices. Lissa on the other hand thinks Gillian doesn't understand that what she's going through and tries to convince Gillian as well as herself that she is praying and seeking God's will. This book will help teen girls see that when boys are involved they may think they're making good choices and that going "a little way" isn't too bad because at least they're not having sex. Shelley is fantastic at showing that compromising isn't part of God's will for any of us. I really think teens will "get" this book and it will minister to those who have made poor choices while being a Christian.
