The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer

Absolutely, my favorite book of 2013, quite possibly my favorite book of all time. The story begins with six teenagers - Jules, the envious one, Ash- the popular wealthy one, Ethan - the animator, Goodman - the unmotivated one, Cathy - the dancer, Jonah - the son of a celebrity- who meet at an arts summer camp, Spirit in the Woods, and continues with their lives and friendship from that point on. A few become intimately connected while others create everlasting friendships. I loved the friendships, the relationships, the drama, the intrigue and most of all, how relatable the story was. One of my favorite aspects of any book is when the author provides multiple perspectives and each character truly has their own voice, something that is extremely well done in the Interestings.
