  Summary: When her parents divorce, a sixth grader struggles to understand that sometimes people are unable to live together.
  I don't think I'll ever get married. Why should I? All it does is make you miserable. Just look at Mrs. Singer. Last year she was Miss Pace and everybody loved her. I said I'd absolutely die if I didn't get her for sixth grade. But I did—and what happened? She got married over the summer and now she's a witch!
  Then there are my parents. They're always fighting. My father was late for dinner tonight and when he got home we were already at the table. Daddy said hello to me and Jeff. Then he turned to Mom. "Couldn't you have waited?" he asked her. "You knew I was coming home for dinner."
  Me and Jeff kept on eating without saying a word. You could feel what was going on between my parents. I wasn't hungry any more.
  Amy is six. When she doesn't like what we're having for dinner she eats a bowl of cereal instead. Then she races into the den to see her favorite TV show. But when Daddy called her she ran back to the kitchen. She gave him a kiss and said, "Hi Daddy."

  But the next morning Jeff was back and Mom was furious. She threw our breakfast at us. "Where were you last night?" she asked him.
  By the time Jeff left for school my mother was on the verge of tears. But when she saw that he had forgotten his lunch she ran after him calling, "Jeff... Jeff... you forget your lunch."
  I have been trying to get sick. I don't wear a sweater when I should, and two days ago I walked in the rain without my boots and my feet got soaked. But so far nothing has happened. Debbie once told me about a girl in her cabin at camp who liked to stay overnight in the infirmary. She used to rub the end of the thermometer until it went up to 102°. Then she'd stick it in her mouth and the nurse would think she was really sick.
  This morning I tried doing that but it never went above 94°—and I rubbed it for ten whole minutes. So I held the tip of the thermometer next to the light bulb in my desk lamp and it went up to 105°. I figured I'd put it in my mouth and walk downstairs like that. Then my mother would take it out and wouldn't she be surprised when she saw what a high fever I had!

conversations.value: But the words won't come out. And Deenie, beautiful Deenie, who everyone says should be a model, is stuck wearing a brace from her neck to her hips. She feels ugly and angry. But only she can figure out how to deal with it. And that's going to take courage.
  When Tony's dad gets rich and the family moves to a fancy suburb, his life is turned upside down. His mom is obsessed with impressing the neighbors. His new friend, Joel, shoplifts, and Joel's sixteen-year-old sister, Lisa, gets undressed at night without pulling down the shades. Besides that, what's Tony supposed to do about his body? Because that's changing as fast as the rest of his life. Her father is dead—shot in a holdup. Uprooted by her grieving mother, sent to New Mexico to stay with an aunt and uncle she barely knows, Davey feels trapped—by her aunt and uncle's fearfulness, by her mother's grief, by her own anger and pain. Then she meets Wolf—intense, brooding, mysterious Wolf. Without asking questions, he somehow understands what Davey is feeling.
  Rachel seemingly has the perfect life—she's a straight-A student, a gifted musician, and a good friend. But she feels like her older brother is determined to ruin everything. Her two best friends think he's funny and they urge Rachel to lighten up, but it's not so easy. Not even when the coolest boy in ninth grade notices her. Is it possible that the key to a perfect life is something other than perfection?
