It's all up to the hundred girls vying for a spot at fame and perfection. But they must remember, if the puppet-master catches them doing the wrong thing at the wrong time, they are sent home with them and the rest of the world knowing that they weren't good enough. That the dream they had ever since they were little had been crushed. That they weren't an alpha.	I liked it because it is an amazing combination of romance, sacrifice, betrayal, and finding yourself in a world where everybody is playing you for their own needs. I felt the emotions the book was trying to make me feel, which is my sign of a good book. It's definitely more a book for girls, though.
