Romance. Young Adult Fiction. Young Adult Literature. HTML:Back for another dose of high drama, Compton's sassiest, Jayd Jackson, is about to discover it really is a different world when she starts dating South Bay High's finest white boy. . .
All Jayd Jackson wants is a drama-free year at South Bay High, a.k.a. Drama High. But it doesn't seem she's going to get it. It's only the second week of Junior year and already, Misty, her nemesis, has almost gotten her killed after instigating a fight between Jayd and KJ's girlfriend, Trecee. But it goes with the territory. She's a fire child, and granddaughter to Lynne Mae Williamsâ??Mamaâ??and Mama says that means the drama will follow Jayd wherever she goes. Even so, Jayd just wants to chill, still hoping Junior year can carry on, drama-free. And with Misty and KJ reportedly "hanging," Jayd is ready to move on. But the brother won't stop blowing up Jayd's cellie, and the text-messages keep coming; and the message is clear: KJ wants Jayd back bad.
But Jayd couldn't care less. She's got a new man to kick-it with nowâ??a half-Jewish white boy from Palos Verdes whose parents are loaded with a capital "L." And Jeremy Weiner's no ordinary white boyâ??he listens to East Coast rap, he's got a sweet ride, and he's got it bad for Jayd Jackson. But no one at South Bay High will just let a sistah be happy. Misty's back to her usual foolishness, KJ's all over her jock, and the notoriously anti-black teacher Mrs. Bennett is tripping. Jeremy's got her totally sprung, but she's going to have to rely on her brainsâ??and some of Mama's magic, of courseâ??if she's going to survive another week at Drama High.
L. Divine is at the top of her game in this superb follow-up to the power-packed Drama High: The Fight. Look for the next juicy installment, Jayd's Legacy

This book is the sequel to the Fight. It was a good book because it told about most of the issues that black teens go through with today. With the gossip , drug deals, and racist teachers. It all goes down on a regular day in high school. That was wrong how all the stuff went down with KJ and Jeremy were trying to get with her at the same. I know how that is but she handled it very well. When the teacher is making those comments, I don't see how she goes through without saying something to her.
