    eBook (HarperTeen, May 28, 2009)
    Amelia Warner will stop at nothing to get what she wants: everything. Seventeen-year-old Amelia Warner is always on the outside. Moving from boarding school to boarding school with her brother and their father, the untenured professor, doesn't help. Amelia lives inches from the sons and daughters of the elite, forever looking in on the beautiful people. A natural-born charmer who doesn't lie so much as rework the truth to her advantage, Amelia is well-versed in the art of faking a high-society identity to get limited access to the luxe life, but she's never figured out how to truly belong. Then she meets Courtney Moore, the Upper East Side heiress who needs a friend as badly as Amelia wants to be that friend, and suddenly a world of opportunity opens up for her. Parties, shopping, her own wing in the Moore mansion—it's all hers for the taking, as long as she can keep her real life a secret, especially from the new acquaintance who's been asking way too many questions. Can Amelia stay one step ahead of the doubters to secure her place in the beautiful world?

    The second piece I have on the table is a cluster--an inch or twodeep--of the moss that grows everywhere, and that the birds use fornest-building, and we for packing, and the like. It is dry, sinceyesterday, and its fibres define themselves against the dark ground in warmgreen, touched with a glittering light. Note that burnished lustre of theminute leaves; they are necessarily always relieved against dark hollows,and this lustre makes them much clearer and brighter than if they were ofdead green. In that lustre--and it is characteristic of them--they differwholly from the dead, aloe-like texture of the pineapple leaf; and remindme, as I look at them closely, a little of some conditions of chaff, as onheads of wheat after being threshed. I will hunt down that clue presently;meantime there is something else to be noticed on the old brick.
