Little Black Lies

by Tish Cohen

Little Black Lies Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Sara Black is tiptoeing across a fraying tightrope.

As the new eleventh grader at Anton High–the most elite public school in the country–she sticks out like an old VW bus in a parking lot full of shiny BMWs. But being the new kid also brings a certain advantageous anonymity.

In Anton High’s world of privilege, intelligence, and wealth, Sara can escape her family’s tarnished past and become whomever she wants.

And what’s the harm in telling a few little black lies when it can lead to popularity? That is, until another it girl at Anton becomes jealous of Sara’s social climbing.

With her balance evaporating, one small push could bring Sara crashing down.

Synopsis:

Boston's most elite high school is a high-wire balancing act--and new student Sara Black is losing her balance. Hoping to start a new life and become a whole new person, Sara must contend with the school's popular girls when one of them starts looking into Sara's past.
