A Month of Mondays

This can't be good! Suddenly Suze's mom wants back into her life, and her teacher wants her to "try harder"?! As if middle school wasn't hard enough, Suze Tamaki's life gets turned upside down when her mother reappears after a ten-year absence. Once Suze gets over her shock, she thinks it might be cool to get to know her mom. But her older sister Tracie is determined not to let her back into their lives. At school things aren't much better. One of her teachers decides the way to cure Suze's lack of motivation is to move her into Honors English - a development Suze finds both inspiring and distressing. When she's paired with straight-A student Amanda on an English assignment, she finds herself caring about people's expectations like she's never done before.
