If you could read my mind, you wouldn't be smiling. Samantha McAllister looks just like the rest of the
popular
girls in her junior class. But hidden beneath the
straightened hair and expertly applied makeup is a secret
that her friends would never understand: Sam has
Purely-Obsessional OCD and is consumed by a stream of dark
thoughts and worries that she can't turn off. Second-guessing every move, thought, and word makes daily
life a struggle, and it doesn't help that her lifelong
friends will turn toxic at the first sign of a wrong
outfit,
wrong lunch, or wrong crush. Yet Sam knows she'd be truly
crazy to leave the protection of the most popular girls in
school. So when Sam meets Caroline, she has to keep her
new
friend with a refreshing sense of humor and no style a
secret, right up there with Sam's weekly visits to her
psychiatrist. Caroline introduces Sam to Poet's Corner, a hidden room
and
a tight-knit group of misfits who have been ignored by the
school at large. Sam is drawn to them immediately,
especially a guitar-playing guy with a talent for verse,
and
starts to discover a whole new side of herself. Slowly,
she
begins to feel more "normal" than she ever has as part of
the popular crowd . . . until she finds a new reason to
question her sanity and all she holds dear.
