Slumming

I read Slumming by Kristen D. Randle. In this book, Alicia, Nikki and Sam are all friends and decide they should all make friends with someone who they would not normally hang out with. They call these their 'projects'. Just when they all thought the project would be harmless, it starts to take them in directions they never thought were possible. Nikki choses a class A nerd, and is surprised that she actually has fun with him. Alicia chooses Morgan, a guy who belongs to a gang and has been arrested a number of times. And Sam chooses Tia, who has an interesting dark past of her own. In the end, the project turned out to be something that they would never forget. I really liked the book because it gave viewpoints from all three characters, and it was a pretty good plot. It also dealed with real problems that happen in highschool, which made it seem more realistic.
