Infinite In Between by Carolyn Mackler
I read this thinking it might be like a modern Breakfast Club. It wasn't.
This is about five teenagers, Zoe, Mia, Whitney, Jake and Gregor, who meet at freshman orientation. None of them are really friends with each other, even though they know who each other is. At orientation, they decide to write letters to their future selves, to be opened the day they graduate high school.
Gregor is in love with Whitney, but too afraid to do anything about it. Jake is gay, and feels he's blown it with the guy of his dreams. Mia is a brain, but everyone thinks she's on drugs. Whitney is popular, but tries to be kind to everyone. Zoe is a famous actress' daughter. They all have nothing in common, yet they are all tied together because of the letters they wrote themselves.
This book follows them through their entire high school careers. No joke. It covers every month between September of their freshman year until June when they graduate. We see all of their stories, which is cool. I just didn't like how disjointed it seemed. Not a bad read, but not the best either.
