So Jane is humiliated and her reputation is ruined because she supposedly had sex WITH HER BOYFRIEND. And the overall motivation for it all… SPOILERS, just in case.
It’s 122 pages long and the action starts pretty much straightaway with no build up or time to invest in the characters. Throughout the book there are also ‘In the Room’ chapters, where Jane’s friend Alice is being questioned about the events by a police officer (who I swear does things so off the books that he would get in so much trouble in real life). So she falls/is pushed overboard on a boat, but then everything spins out of control, and people die for real.
But of course she’s not really going to die. Jane decides the best way to pay them both back is to orchestrate an accident in which they’re at fault for her death. In her latest entry she wrote about how she lost her virginity to her boyfriend, but it was a lie! The mean cheerleader is obviously behind this smear campaign (because Jane once said something sort of nasty about the cheerleaders in the school paper), and her boyfriend is denying it (she thinks it’s cos he’s a lame-o dude thinking about his own reputation but he mostly didn’t want to call her a liar to everyone). Jane Retton keeps a fictional diary that somehow ends up being copied and splashed all over school.
