Bright Young Things

Bright Young Things centers on Ellie Brown, a 15-year-old girl from a working-class town in West Virginia who earns a scholarship to the most elite boarding school in the country. When idealistic Ellie realizes the deck is already stacked against her, she finds herself lying, cheating, and stealing her way through the hallowed halls of the school — anything to claim a piece of the American dream denied to her friends and family back home.
