<p><span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:20px;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Jane's a nice girl who gets caught up in a world she believes she can handle in a public school. Upon her transfer from a private school, she befriends a crowd that is into the alcohol, drugs and party scene. Jane is really an outsider trying to gel with the in crowd. She is a young woman of substance just trying to fit in. She is very smart and plays chess, but finds herself drawn into her friends' shallow world because she wants to belong.<br /><br /> This book introduces us to a young woman who is coming of age in a time of difficulty and confusion during junior high and high school when other kids can be cruel. Call Me Jane reminds me of the movie "Thirteen" because there is a group of teenagers engaged in activities way above their maturity levels. This book takes the reader into the sheer ugliness of being a teen, all the temptations that could possibly lure a good kind off the straight and narrow path.<br /><br /> If you want to delve into a realistic picture of what life is like for today's teenagers. Read Call Me Jane and get a real wake-up call.</span></p> <div><span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:20px;font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Amazon Customer review</span></div>
