“Debut author Peña offers a middle-grade tale of middle-school high jinks.” “Peña has a keen sense of drama, and the threat of Mildred’s memory returning effectively hangs over the feel-good moments that make up much of the novel.” “This is a puzzling narrative decision, as the book has no qualms about frankly moralizing on other subjects, such as infidelity and drug use.” -Kirkus, 2018When Amanda Muse started junior high in a new school far from home, she met Mildred Riley. Mildred was a known bully who targeted Amanda from day one. This is a story of how a freak accident made a bully and her victim become the best of friends.
