My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante, 331 pages. translated from the Italian by Ann Goldstein.
The first book of Ferrante's Neapolitan quartet is quite a good book. Set in a poor neighborhood near Naples, it tells the story of the two brightest children in the school, Elena and Lila. The book follows the two of them and their friendship as they go through school and grow to adulthood.
