(3) YA Exiled to a remote reform school for "dangerous girls," Angela is torn between an impulse to beat the system from within or to rebel violently against it. As she slowly makes friends and discovers the school's vicious secrets, Angela redefines herself. The impenetrable unreliability of the students and staff imbue the story with an impressively creepy psychological tension (overwrought conclusion notwithstanding).
