Halloweirdo

She's mastered the unwritten rules of junior high-don't wear brand-new clothes on the first day, never get sneezed on in the lunchroom (ask Abbey "Boogs" Bailey), and above all, don't stand out too much. Even with her love of all things Halloween-creepy décor, vintage costumes, monster movie trivia-Sam's managed to stay off the radar.
But then her life turns into a real monster movie. Only this beast doesn't have fangs or claws-it's blonde, bold, and brimming with sarcasm. And it comes armed with a nickname: Halloweirdo.
Suddenly, Sam's normal is everyone else's strange, and middle school feels scarier than any zombie attack. Now she has a choice: tone it down to fit in... or embrace the weird and discover what real courage looks like.

Middle school is terrifying. But not in the fun way.
