Pretty Crooked by Elisa Ludwig

Goodreads Synopsis: Willa’s secret plan seems all too simple: take from the rich kids at Valley Prep and give to the poor ones.
Yet Willa’s turn as Robin Hood at her ultra-exclusive high school is anything but. Bilking her “friends”-known to everyone as the Glitterati-without them suspecting a thing, is far from easy. Learning how to pick pockets and break into lockers is as difficult as she’d thought it’d be. Delivering care packages to the scholarship girls, who are ostracized just for being from the “wrong” side of town, is way more fun than she’d expected.
The complication Willa didn’t expect, though, is Aidan Murphy, Valley Prep’s most notorious (and gorgeous) ace-degenerate. His mere existence is distracting Willa from what matters most to her-evening the social playing field between the have and have-nots. There’s no time for crushes and flirting with boys, especially conceited and obnoxious trust-funders like Aidan.
But when the cops start investigating the string of burglaries at Valley Prep and the Glitterati begin to seek revenge, could he wind up being the person that Willa trusts most?

From Goodreads
I'm reading it right now and I'm loving it a lot It's super witty and interesting with the whole Robin Hood concept, I'm crossing my fingers it turns out really good!My Teaser: "I'm taking a stand against your obnoxious site. And we don't know what the truth is, do we Kellie?" "I'll say we have pretty good evidence. How about those new clothes? Where else would they get money for them? Don't tell me you believe that lame anonymous-package story?'
What your Teaser Tuesday? :)
Enjoy the rest of the book.
