the book Some Girls Are by Courtney Summer is a story about typical high issues but 10 times worse. there is a group called the fearsome five made up by five girls: Anna, Kara, Marta, Jeanette, and Regina. Anna is the leader and a complete snob, and the rest of the girls are like her slaves who do all the dirty work for her. they hate each other and compete for who Anna will like the most. at a party Anna's boyfriend Donnie tries to rape Regina and Kara tells Anna and the whole school that she actually slept with him.
from that point on they make her life miserable. by the end of the book they leave her alone but only because they are threatened to get suspended. i think that in this story justice is not served. i think that what would have happened for justice to have happened is a social change would have had to occur. many people would have stood up to Anna and told the principal and not just stand there and watch all this happen.
i think that Regina and the students block justice. Regina could have told the principal or her mom and have made it all better, or the students could have rallied together and stopped the girls. i think that the reason the students didn't do it is because when Regina was part of the group she had bulled them and that made them hate her so they wanted her to go through what she did.
