Selene was speechless as the beautiful girl who she had slammed the locker of that very morning plopped down beside her.
"Hey, can I sit here?" the girl asked, obviously oblivious to the many pairs of eyes staring at her.
Selene couldn't say a word, but her eyes must have said something, because the girl smiled and looked like she wasn't going anywhere.
"Hey, Makenzy! Don't sit with her!! Come sit with us!" she heard Mason Kent call from the opposite side of the room.
The girl, whom she was guessing was Makenzy, looked up at Mason, and looked back at her.
Selene's eyes quickly flashed to her lunch, avoiding eye contact.
Selene could tell all the pressure was on Makenzy; the whole cafeteria was watching her for her next move.

Book of The Month
It's always trouble to pick a title out of the 1,000 story library of the world, but sometimes you have to anyways. This month I chose the book, "Showoff" by Gordon Korman.
This book is actually the most recent of the series written staring "The Man With The Plan," Griffin Bing and his top-notch team consisting of the narcoleptic Ben, dog-whisperer Savannah, the shy technology wizard Melissa, climber Pitch, and actor Logan. Griffin is known for his crazy, out of the world plans from book 1, "Swindle."
Summary:
Griffin Bing and his friends are back - and this time, things have gone to the dogs!
After former attack dog Luthor goes berserk at a dog show, he's accused of ruining the career of the three-time national champion. Griffin has always wondered whether you could teach such a vicious dog new tricks . . . but he also smells a setup of some kind. He feels bad for Luthor - bad enough to spring him from the pound.
The only way for Luthor to make everything right is to do the unthinkable. . . and become the new national champion. Can Griffin Bing, The Man With The Plan, turn this beast into a beauty? Very soon, the whole world will want to know the answer.
Don't miss any antics of The Man With The Plan, from Gordon Korman:
"Swindle"
"Zoobreak"
"Framed"
Tip: This book is best understood after reading the whole series.
Recommended For:
Mystery Lovers, Adventure Seekers, nd Dog Lovers

Make It in America by Story Sharer
~Prologue~
I review the lyrics, over and over, still not believing my fate. Who knew a song by that TV brat, "Victoria Justice," could change my life forever?
• • •
America Cherry is your average, 15 year-old, American rich chick, going to a big school, has rich parents, and annoying, stuck-up enemies.
But her whole life changes when she hears a song that may be surprising and fun. When America hears it, this is serious. Not only is it a song that gets you to party, but a song with lyrics that may not make sense.
As America faces her hardships a year has passed and it dawns on her that the lyrics aren't just written for show.
The lyrics are her life story.
