Sixteen-year-old Jayd Jackson is nobodys fool. What she doesnt know is how to play the game at South Bay High, a.k.a. Drama High, a white school in Los Angeles where the kids keep looking at Jayd like shes going to steal one of their rides. n nProudly hailing from Compton, USA, sixteen-year-old Jayd Jackson is no stranger to drive-by shootings or run-ins with the friendly neighborhood crackhead. Street-smart, book-smart, and life-smart, shes nobodys fool-least of all KJs, the most popular and cutest basketball jock at South Bay High, aka Drama High. Yes, its a fact, Jayd fell hard for his player ways for a time, but now that KJs shown his true colors-dumping Jayd because she refused to give up the cookies-shes through with him and his game playing for good. n nJayd just wants to start her Junior year of high school drama free. But wanting aint getting, especially at a place like Drama High, a predominately white high school in a wealthy part of Los Angeles, where Jayd and 30 other Compton kids get bussed to daily. Saying race relations arent what they should be would be putting it mildly, and thats just the beginning of the drama. Jayds first day back to school, KJs new girlfriend, Trecee, steps to her wanting to fight. Egged on by Misty, Jayds former best friend-turned-nemesis, Trecee wants to make Jayd understand that KJ is off limits-even if she has to do it with her fists. With the fight set for Friday, and the sistah drama at an all time high, Jayd is about to learn whos really got her back and more importantly, when shes got to watch it. But at least she can always count on Mama, and her mystical bag of tricks. n nDrama High is a remarkably assured debut, and L. Divine is a tantalizing and refreshing new voice. Jayd and her bold, honest, and laugh-out-loud funny assessment of life, along with her quirky cast of friends, classmates, loves, her magical family and eccentric neighbors make for an irresistible, cant-put-it-down read. n
