"I was one of them now. I had ascended to greatness at Easton.Though if someone asked me to sit down and tell them how I had done it, I would be rendered speechless. Last I checked, I had pissed them all off by continuing to talk to my boyfriend, Thomas Pearson, of whom none of them approved. I thought I had lost them forever by going behind their backs and offering to stick with him and help him through his issues. Instead, I had apparently impressed them." 
 SO, Reed is finally a 'Billings Girl,' yay! BUT Thomas is still missing, Noelle is still being manipulative, and all the other Billings Girls are treating Reed like a slave. I'm starting to suspect that Reed may be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome - she's in love with these girls even though they treat her like crap. 
 "It was sick. It was twisted. It was evil. But it was also for me. No one had ever done anything like this for me before." 
 So... I think Reed's obsession with the Billings Girls is kind of crazy but I still really like this series...
