Book Reviews of Platinum Prom: The Crowning of a Beverly Hills Clique, A Novel
Book Review: Prom goes platinum!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved Platinum Prom. As soon as I opened it, I couldn't stop reading it. It's about four rich girls who live in Beverly Hills and are planning their senior prom. But they're not just going to prom. They're competing with each other to win prom queen, and to throw the biggest post-prom party. The girls go wild and hire planners, stylists, and spare no expense on their designer dresses, custom limos, and after-parties that are bigger than weddings! The book is a countdown to prom and follows the group first to Saks to pick out prom dresses, then around Beverly Hills with their prom planners, then to Las Vegas for even more prom dress shopping, and of course to prom, where lots of awesome surprises happen.
The clique is Claire, April, Tawny, and Shayna. Claire's the tall, thin, beautiful blonde type, but she surprisingly isn't as self confident as she seems. She practically starves herself to fit into her tiny designer prom dress. April's the "old money," classic deb in the group, who has a big secret she's keeping from her friends. Tawny's the fun-loving beach bum who's like a guy magnet and attracts boys all over the world. Last there's Shayna, and she's the feisty brunette who's not as "perfect" as the others, and is always trying to keep up with them. It's very funny and some of the best scenes are with the girls going back and forth dissing each other.
I really recommend Platinum Prom and definitely give it five stars. It was a great time and so much fun, especially with prom coming up. Any girl in high school should check out Platinum Prom!

Summary of Platinum Prom: The Crowning of a Beverly Hills Clique, A Novel
Based on actual interviews with Beverly Hills High School students, author Sabrina London weaves a wickedly funny fictional account of typical life at Beverly Hills High. That includes private jets, red carpet events, Chanel runway shows, and impromptu shopping sprees in Las Vegas. And that's just some of the fabulous things that spell out Prom Season in Beverly Hills. The story begins a few months before senior prom, and each chapter counts down to the big night. We meet Claire, April, Tawny, and Shayna, four Beverly seniors, and former clique-mates turned frenemies. Their mission: to throw the biggest after-prom parties, snag the best designer dresses, and be crowned Prom Queen, forever going down in the history books. And nothing will stop them from winning the crown, except for maybe one huge surprise nobody expects. Placing the reader directly on the dance floor at prom, London delivers a satisfying teen read that's also safe for younger Clique readers.Teens Books
