Editorial Reviews

Although the concept might seem outlandish atfirst, it hews very close to the experience of many middle school students -while it may not be literally true, it will certainly feel truefor some readers. When you're in middle school, it can seem as though joining aclique is compulsory, and as Dethany soon discovers, once you've beenpigeonholed, it can be nearly impossible to get the masses to see you any otherway.” - The Beat
