by Laurie Halse Anderson

She busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops -- a major infraction in high-school society -- so her old friends won't talk to her, and people she doesn't know glare at her. She retreats into her head, where the lies and hypocrisies of high school stand in stark relief to her own silence. But it's not so comfortable in her head, either -- there's something banging around in there that she doesn't want to think about that won't go away, until there is a painful confrontation.
