"High School. Two words that struck fear into the heart of every armless middle schooler I knew. Which was me. And like two people online."

She's about to begin high school . . . with 2,300 new kids to stare at her. And no matter how much Aven tries to play it cool, nothing prepares her for the reality. In a year filled with confusion, humiliation, fears, loss, and just maybe love, can Aven manage to stay true to herself?
