"Worlds collide when four young women begin college at the prestigious New York University. Shy, literate Riley, overachieving but naive Lona, laid-back West Coaster Ren, and working-class girl Merissa claim newfound freedom living in the big city. But that freedom comes at a price: roommate drama, mysterious love interests, school troubles, and family conflicts"-- Provided by publisher.

"This volume collects and reprints the comic book series The New York Four and The New York Five originally published by Vertigo Comics"--T.p. verso.
