A high-school outcast finds unexpected allies

Mena begins high school estranged from former friends and emotionally distant from her parents after an attempt to do the right thing goes badly. The story brings together a nerdy lab partner, his outspoken sister, and an unconventional science teacher as Mena navigates the fallout. Bullying and social exclusion sit alongside questions of belonging, friendship, and how people who stand apart can support one another. Science is part of the cast’s shared world, while the central conflict is Mena’s changing relationships at school and at home.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in high-school stories about bullying and social exclusion.
  • Readers who enjoy coming-of-age fiction centered on friendship and finding allies.
  • Readers interested in stories featuring science-minded characters and an unconventional teacher.

Book overview

I knew today would be ugly...

 

It's the first day of high school for Mena, and already her world looks bleak: she's an outcast, all her former friends hate her, even her parents barely speak to her anymore. And why? Because she tried to do the right thing. And then everything went wrong.

 

But can a cute, nerdy lab partner; his bossy, outspoken sister; and an unconventional, imaginative science teacher be just what Mena needs to turn her life around?

 

Or will the combination of all of them only make things worse?

 

As Mena is about to find out...

 

It's the freaks of nature who survive.
