Best friends Harper Waddle, Sophie Bushell, and Kate Foster
committed the ultimate suburban sin: bailing on college to
pursue their dreams. Middlebury-bound Becca Winsberg was
convinced her friends had gone insane until they reminded
her she just might have a dream of her own.
Now
the year is half-way through and their dreams seem within
reach. Well, almost. Harper has managed to gain the freshman
fifteen without ever being a freshman, though locked in her
basement bathroom she finds inspiration and finally seems to
be writing from the heart. Sophie is forced to leave her
cushy Beverly Hills quarters and crashes on Sam's couch
while looking for her big Hollywood break. Kate is doing aid
work in Ethiopia, where she encounters family ghosts - along
with Darby, the handsome but antagonistic Princeton student
who thinks she's a dumb blonde who couldn't possibly care
about Ethiopia "since there are no celebrities here." And
when Becca finally emerges from her lovers' nest, it seems
her relationship with Stuart isn't as perfect as she
thought.
Even if "the year that changed
everything" has sometimes been less than dreamy, these four
best friends will always have each other.
