YA book, finishing school/reform school.
Hello! I am looking for a book with some vague details I remember. I read it about a decade ago in high school, I graduated in 2019, but due to rough class scheduling, that would place my days of being a bookworm around 2015-2017.
The book that opens with a girl crying about how she cannot contact her boyfriend after she carved instructions on his arm in his room with a ballpoint pen on how to find her. (I believe this call was made at a bus stop, but i could be wrong). She thinks he isn't answering because he or his mother thinks she is crazy. she arrives to the school and when in the first room she sees a girl in a (prop) iron maiden. she gets scared and runs away. She realizes the fence is easily able to hop over, but for some reason she doesn't leave immediately.
Later in the book she finds a basement level with a boat that she thinks about escaping in, but the girl in that was in the iron maiden finds her and convinces her to stay.
