Trivia

 * On September 5th, 2017, it was announced that a new high school themed book is in the works.
 * This book is the only book to have all its chapters released at once after the initial three books.
 * The story has the same name and is based on one of Pixelberry's other games: High School Story. Payton, Julian, Autumn, Mia, Ezra, Nishan, Koh, Kara, Max, Wes, and Sakura, who are characters in that game, make frequent appearances throughout the book.
 * The rival school, Hearst High, is also based on the rival school from the same game like the characters mentioned above. Max and Kara are also students at Hearst, another detail from the other game.
 * If you choose to play Lookout with the nerds in Chapter 6, there is a not so skilled player called KappaKutie12345. It's most likely that this is Madison from the Freshman/Sophomore series.
 * Pixelberry's Blog stated that this story takes place two years after the events of the High School Story app.
 * This is the second book where Your Character has a last name, the first being The Royal Romance.
 * In Chapter 9, if you choose to look under the tree, you will find an old gas mask. When you put it on, Your Character will ask "Mummy? Are you my mummy?", a reference to the "The Empty Child" an episode of the long-running sci-fi series Doctor Who.
 * The final scene of Book 1 is recycled and expanded into the opening chapter of Book 2.
 * On Thursday November 16, 2017 Pixelberry released the soundtracks for the book.
