Homecoming Queen (Carter House Girls #3) by Melody Carlson

Mix six teenage girls and one '60s fashion icon (retired, of course) in an old Victorian-era boarding home. Add boys and dating, a little high-school angst, and throw in a Kate Spade bag or two ... and you've got Carter House Girls, Melody Carlson's series for young adults!

The Carter House experiences a shake-up as one of its own returns home after an unnerving disappearing act. Then friction grows as the school's homecoming queen race heats up, turning friends and housemates against one another. DJ, Eliza, Taylor, Kriti, Rhiannon, and Casey show they have plenty of lessons to learn as the votes roll in. Some grow smarter and closer to God, while others seem to make the same mistakes over again.

Despite all their differences and disagreements, the Carter House girls continue to grow together, forging a bond that strengthens through hardship. Hearts can change, and friendships pave the way for at least one girl to move closer to God.
