![]() ![]() Jordan has been her friend for a long time, and attending the same high school gave Liz a sense of belonging and confidence. Things took a really different turn after she was snubbed by her childhood best friend, Jordan Jennings, on their very first day at high school. Though she had a few people who loved and cared for her, with the inclusion of her family, Liz still felt different. ![]() All she had was her elder brother, whom she lived with at Campbell in her grandparent’s house, and a few other friends. She was familiar with the neighborhood, and that made it worse. Having grown up in the small town of Campbell, a community where most people knew themselves. If it was just about being black and obviously different, Liz would have been able to cope with that, but that was not all. This made it more difficult for her to blend with other rich white students in her school. Being tall, black, and different was not something exciting to be. You should see me in a crown is a story of a girl, Liz Lighty, who has always believed she’s too weird, too black, too different, too poor to make it in her small, rich prom-obsessed town in the mid-west. ![]()
