YA
Mackler tackles weighty topics in her latest novel, which traces the ups and downs of five high school students--including a popular girl, a musician, and a genius--from freshman orientation to graduation. Despite the long time span and rigid structure, these characters (and their shared surroundings) are well developed, and many plot twists will come as a surprise.
