The Out Crowd follows ordinary kids as a seemingly-normal high school experiences its own culture war between the In Crowd and the Out Crowd. What starts with small rumors about cheerleading captain Hallie Flynn eventually consumes the entire school. Isaiah and his friends are caught in the middle. When the price of belonging grows too high, they are thrust into a battle they never asked for. A battle between principle and popularity. Speaking truth to gossip becomes an act of rebellion in a school that rewards conformity.
It's the high school we've all been to - and the world we live in now, complete with mob mentality and destructive peer culture. Hallways are echo chambers. Cafeteria tables are whisper networks. News stories become gossip columns. Refusal to follow the crowd becomes social exile. A story for those who still believe in right and wrong - even when it's unpopular. Being an outsider never felt so honest.
Praise for The Out Crowd
"This is so realistic in how many media outlets and those in power seem to feel in today's society. The author has created each character with the utmost consideration and the way they interacted with one another was very realistic. I would love to see this novel in a school library, as I feel the subject matter will spark an interesting debate. This book also encourages young people to have their own thoughts and opinions which is essential. The author has clearly done a lot of research into his subject and executed the message perfectly."
Reader's Favorite
"The Out Crowd isn't a light read about a subject easy to poke fun at. If you're tired of the fake news circulating in the media, then this will be a refreshing read."
