Charissa (charissastastny) | 169 comments Off my head, I loved Isabella and the Slipper Isabella and the Slipper by Victorine E. Lieske by Victorine Lieske set in a California high school. Also All's Fair in Love, War, and HIgh School All's Fair in Love, War, and High School (Pullman High #2) by Janette Rallison by Janette Rallison. For a book about teachers at a school, I adored Jennifer Peel's How to Get Over your Ex in 90 Days How to Get Over Your Ex in Ninety Days by Jennifer Peel . And one set at a college is Legally Wedded by Jennifer Griffeth Legally Wedded (Legally in Love, #3) by Jennifer Griffith

A.L. Sowards | 2481 comments That's a tough question for me. I like books that take me to a new place or time, so I usually avoid books set in high schools or in singles wards, because I've been there before and don't have much of a desire to return.

But here are some books that I enjoyed that take place in schools:

Mustaches for Maddie by Chad Morris Mustaches for Maddie (elementary school)
The Wrong Side of Magic by Janette Rallison The Wrong Side of Magic (most of the book takes place in a fantasy world, but there are a few scenes at a contemporary school, middle school or jr. high, I think)
Rearview Mirror by Stephanie Black Rearview Mirror (the heroine and her romantic interest are college professors)
Ghostsitter by Shelly Brown Ghostsitter (elementary school)
Fool Me Twice by Stephanie Black Fool Me Twice & Played for a Fool by Stephanie Black Played for a Fool (college)
