When I first started reading this I didn't think it was gonna be as good as Robin Wessweman's Seven Deadly Sins series, but it was. I loved it and I loved that fact that besides the hack part it was pretty much realistic. Eric, Max and Schwarz are three best friends, who love to pull hacks. They make a bet- that Eric doesn't much agree with- to get this guy Clay into Harvard. First you should know that no way does Clay deserve it, straight F's and no interest in higher education. But he goes along with it. Than enters Lex. She'll do almost anything to get into Harvard, and she almost does, until she falls in love with Eric and they accidentally catch her disrupting their plan. But than she gives up on her hopes of going to Harvard and tries to do the right thing- not for Eric, or the guys, just for herself, because she knows it's right. Clay goes to Harvard- and actually finds he loves it. Lex doesn't get in, but after a while she realizes she doesn't much care. Brown was a better choice, and Eric forgave her.
It was better than good.
