Tradition by Brendan Kiely
2.0
I received this through Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
After Jamie got into some trouble on his football team at his last school, he was sent to Fullbrook Academy. Jamie is not used to be surrounded by the privileged and prestigious and he feels more out of place because he is on scholarship and working against his past. Jamie tries to move beyond last year, but he is put in difficult situations with the unwritten traditions occurring around school.
Jules dislikes Fullbrook Academy and is tired of the boys club environment. While she attempts to stand up for herself and the other women at the school, she is ostracized and begins fighting a losing battle.
Things become extremely difficult after one party, where something bad happens (avoiding spoilers) and the characters are left to deal with the ramifications.
This book was tricky for me. While this is a story to be told, I just don't know if it was developed enough to provide the characters justice. I think it will be a great book discussion book.
