Story4.5 out of 5 stars 192
Tracy Flick wants to be President of Winwood High. She’s one of those ambitious girls who finds time to do it all: edit the yearbook, star in the musical, sleep with her English teacher. But another teacher, staunch idealist Jim McAllister, a.k.a. “Mr. M.,” thinks the students deserve better. So he persuades Paul Warren—a well-liked, good-hearted jock—to throw in his hat. But that puts Paul’s sister Tammy in a snit. So she runs too, on an apathy platform, before starting a real campaign...to get herself kicked out of school.

Unlikable yet Sympathetic Characters Abound
Reviewed: 06-20-22
I enjoy the writing of Mr. Perrotta, striking a tone that is as infuriating and comical as the characters that walk the halls of Winwood High School. I found it hard to be completely sympathetic to a lot of the character's plights but there were some surprising moments of relatability. It's got a steady pace and the voice acting from the different POV's was a nice touch and made it easier to follow.
