A tall chubby girl and a petite bird-framed girl are fast friends at an exclusive prep school in Manhattan. During their senior year, in 1965, they decide they just "must" lose their virginity before going off to college in the fall. One would think that they could have chosen wiser than the 26 year-old unemployed cad who vacations with them in Stowe, Vermont, to facilitate this deflowering. That this sketchy plan goes horribly awry, completely wrecking the lives of the chubby girl and her family, should come as no surprise.

This should make a great movie. ( )

I thought this book was ok. I was got it at the library but would not recommend it to anyone. It was kind of weird that the seemingly bright main caractrer did not figure out that she was being blackmailed for a crime she didn''t commit. ( )

The first chapter was a bit... too much. However, if you get through the first chapter it's a great book! ( )

I really enjoyed this book. I thought the characters were extremely well done as was the period detail. I especially liked that the main character was far from perfect, made some bad choices but I still identified with her and pulling for her to the end. ( )

I hated this book so much I get chills whenever I think of it. ( )
