In the Favorites

In or Out by Claudia Gabel
Reviewed by Segen

Claudia Gabel is the most wonderful author ever! Even though IN or OUT is her first novel, she did an extraordinary job and had no flaws in the book whatsoever!

IN or OUT is about two best friends named Nola and Marnie. They have been best friends since kindergarten and have been inseparable ever since. The summer ends and Marnie and Nola enter High School which Nola has been dreading all summer. In one week, things start to take a downfall in school and somehow Marnie ends up being best friends with Lizette and her clique which are the most popular freshmen. When Marnie and Nola's friendship takes a downfall, things start to take a long fall. Especially because Lizette hates Nola with a fiery passion. But meanwhile, Nola and Marnie start having boy problems too! Will there friendship hit an all-time low and stay that way?

This novel by far is now my favorite novel in the entire world! Its flows really well and not one sentence ever gets boring. Girls from ages 13 and up will love this book hopefully just as much as I did!
