Produktbeschreibung

When the Queen Bee picks you as her next victim, survival takes creativity. Fourteen-year-old Jacqueline Carson thought she knew how to keep her head down. But when Mean Girl Queen Bee Barbie decides Jacqueline is her new favorite target-and Jacqueline's best friend jumps ship to join the dance squad-life at school becomes unbearable. At home, things aren't any better. Her parents' marriage is crumbling, her mom's falling apart, and Jacqueline suspects a long-buried family secret might be to blame. So she does the only thing she can think of: she escapes-into her books. But when the stories she loves start to blur with reality, Jacqueline discovers that the characters on the page might hold the key to saving her family, standing up to the bullies, and maybe even getting the boy. For readers 14+ (some mature themes and language). San Francisco Writers Conference Contest Finalist. Kindle Book Review Award Semifinalist.
