Land of Misfit Teens (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781949705850)

Amelia liked her life.

Her parents were both teachers, which most kids would find annoying, but Amelia liked it just fine. Sure, her family was quirky - her 'Da' being Scottish and a bit on the Geek Chic side - and her mom was fun to hang out with. That was the way she liked it.

Then everything changed. Fast.

Her mom died, her family broke. If that wasn't bad enough, the university where her father taught shut down. Everything she thought her senior year, her future - her life - would be just...disappeared.

Now, she and Da are trying to rebuild their lives with only two-thirds of their family. She's in a new school where quirky isn't cool, and it's even worse when your father is the new English teacher and he's unlike any teacher any kid at this school has ever seen.

She could try to blend in and be like everyone else, but that's not Amelia. Her mom was looking out for her because on day one she met the rest of the "misfits" and they immediately welcome her.

And there's Drake. He might be the lifetime kind of friend.

When someone is hurt, you help. That decision sets off a domino effect that could destroy everything. Once again.
