One of my favorite genres is YA mystery/thrillers so this immediately got my attention. I also love books that are set at boarding schools and then there's the gorgeous cover.... Basically this book has been on my must read list since I read the description. Now, after reading the excerpt, I can't wait to get my hands on this book! The writing is well done, the mystery seems like one with lots of twists, complex characters, and just an overall awesome book.
