It was an enjoyable read, but fell just below my benchmark for 3 stars is say solid 2.5.
What this story is lacking in quality, it makes up in entertainment value. Its very soap opera-ish. The continous fluctuations in people dating one another, gossip, backstabbing, all out brawls all included this made it difficult to put down. Similar feeling to when you see an accident and you slow down to to watch as your passing by.
