Quote by Christine Rice

“At school, she moves seamlessly between jocks, band geeks, honor society and debate team nerds, partiers, kids with no affiliations, kids no one notices. She’s always been that way.”

'Anyway, Janine and I never would have stayed together in high school. We were both only half-baked and double stupid back then. She broke up with me after prom because I didn't believe in Jesus.

“Did you know you have the chance to be the first black queen in Campbell history?” I swallow. I did know that. Of course I know that. But I don’t like it being held against me.

You could actually be worth something if you would shut up and take what we give you.”

There were many dance and parties to attend: homecoming at both Steptoe and Yeatman, Steptoe's winter formal, holiday celebrations, and, in the spring, proms and the Tennessee Breeders' Cup. At times, it seemed our education was getting in the way of the events surrounding it.”
