"Affluenza" is a social condition that arises from the desire to be more wealthy or successful. It is a social condition that presents itself in individuals in positions of high status or privilege who believe that they will not be held accountable for their actions because of their social position.

"All these kids have got affluenza."

Riverdale, despite its small population, is the elite town of America. Known for being the town where prominent business owners, world-renowned actors and heirs to huge amounts of fortune settled down. Each household has a different story, gossip spreads like wildfire, arguments turn into feuds and money seems to be the only way to solve problems.

Question: in a town where everyone puts up a fake facade, who could you trust? More importantly, can you even trust anyone?

Riverdale-centric AU in which Riverdale is Bel Air and everyone is a member of the elite.

This book is entitled and inspired by the lyrics of "Affluenza" by Conan Gray. The characters are also from the hit show "Riverdale", this is simply a fanfiction. While that may be the case, the plot for this fanfiction is an original of mine. Also, the cover of this fanfiction is an original creation of mine.

I've had experiences where my plots and covers (I'm not kidding, I found someone crop the cover of one of my stories and used it as the cover for their own) are used without my permission. I take that very seriously because these are original ideas of mine, even though they might be inspired by particular things such as songs and events.

Enjoy reading xx
