review 1: Buzzwords: Anthropology, coming of age, high school, friendship, crushes, secrets, understanding cliques/social groups, southern pageantJanice Wills is a teenaged anthropologist, observing the culture and behaviors of high schoolers in her small southern town. But is she really as removed as an anthropologist should be?
