YA
Ambushed by her father and left at a boot camp for rebellious girls, Brit Hemphill bonds with the usual group of misfits and embarks on a mission to get the place shut down, all the while trying to forgive her father. The plot and supporting characters are nothing new, but the immensely likable protagonist will draw in readers.
