Flick by Wendy Ann Kesselman

A young adolescent is confused by the behavior of her schoolmate Felicity, on whom she has a passionate crush.

----

Flick, the product of a wealthy, if dysfunctional, family, uses charm to manipulate her peers at a private New York girls school. Bi-sexual, she engages in a physical relationship with Nana - two years Flick's junior. We see events from Nana's viewpoint and the author, if rather over the top, conveys the younger girl's trauma of longing and rejection. However, Flick's recounting of her sexual abuse by her stepfather is convincing.
