OK, I'm officially confused: is this book set in Melbourne or not? Why are we talking about bangs and referring to parents as mom then? And why do the kids want to go to schools in the US? And why are we talking about people going to college? None of this makes sense.

No, a guest speaker does not walk in without an introduction from school staff. A successful guest speaker does not patronise students or insult them. And I seriously doubt that two students shouting at each other and ignoring her is the worst behaviour she's ever seen. I want to like this book but I keep being pulled out of it by things that don't make sense, even for the storyline.

There are some failings of logic here. Firstly, if you're going to write fake emails to people that you never intend to send, why on earth are you entering their ACTUAL email address? Secondly, I've worked in a lot of secondary schools and students like Sadie don't make school captain. They just don't. Maybe some minor leadership role, but not captain.
