Already drifting in their relationship, her boyfriend is drawn towards Ms. Rossi as is Eli, Liza, and Adora's Boyfriend! What is Ms. Rossi's plan with this enslavement and why are so many boys drawn to her? Adora is set on a queen bee mission...

I thought the book was quite a read! It depicted the life of a teenager all too well just as it dramatized the "queen bee" of the popular side of high school. Teacher's deffinately have this effect on boys, especially if the teacher is the instigator. The book had a great hook straight from the beggining and kept me reading. The ending was lacking on the hook and sort of lead more toward fairy tale endings. Not too apealing to some readers but was suffice for a great read! Sequal to Fringe Girl, Fringe Girl in Love deffinately read up to expectation and provided me with a FANTASTIC laugh. Every chapter kept you on your toes and i often caught myself smiling and laughing out loud. GREAT READ!

Content:
This book has a quite a bit of language and does have some sexual content in it. I would only suggest this to readers above the age of 13 and possibly 14. I am only 14 but it all depends on the maturity of the reader.
