Seventh grade, pulled in two directions

Sara’s seventh-grade life is divided among volleyball, drama club, friendships, a crush, and her parents’ shifting expectations of her independence. The graphic novel builds its conflict around the difficulty of choosing between roles that all matter: athlete or performer, child or nearly grown-up. Those competing commitments give the story a clear coming-of-age frame, while its school activities and crush keep the stakes grounded in everyday adolescent life. As the second book in the Mixed Feelings series, it continues Sara’s story through the familiar uncertainty of trying to work out where she belongs.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Kids ages 9–12 interested in school-centered stories about growing up.
  • Readers who enjoy graphic novels featuring drama club, sports, friendship, and crushes.
  • Those looking for a follow-up to Mixed Feelings.

Book overview

In this funny, feel-good follow-up to Mixed Feelings, Sara struggles to find her place because she's constantly caught between TWO spaces: childhood and adulthood, drama club and volleyball, friends and a crush. Perfect for fans of The Tryout, The New Girl: First Crush, and Pizza Face.

 

Getting thrown for a loop!

 

What is the best part of seventh grade?

A: The cutest boy in school messages you on AIM.

B: You've made the volleyball team and nailed your drama club audition.

C: Your parents recognize how responsible you are and treat you like an adult.

D: SIKE! None of this turns out the way you expect it to!

 

Seventh grade started out strong, but now Sara is struggling... Because of her volleyball schedule, she may not be cast in the play. And due to her commitment to drama club, she could be benched during the big game. To make matters worse, her crush only seems to talk to her when he needs help in math class. And to top it off, her parents pick and choose when to treat her like a kid or a grown-up.

 

Sara's finding herself caught in a strange in-between space. Is she an actress or an athlete? A crush or a calculator? An adolescent or an adult? With so many mixed signals, will Sara ever be able to find her place?

 

In this feel-good follow-up to Mixed Feelings, being a teenage girl has never been so hilarious and harrowing at the same time!
