Viola doesn't want to go to boarding school, but somehow she
ends up at an all-girls school in South Bend, Indiana, far,
far away from her home in Brooklyn, New York. Now Viola is
stuck for a whole year in the sherbet-colored sweater
capital of the world.
Ick.
There's no way Viola's going to survive the year—especially
since she has to replace her best friend Andrew with three
new roommates who, disturbingly, actually seem to like it
there. She resorts to viewing the world (and hiding) behind
the lens of her video camera.
Boarding school, though, and her roommates and even the
Midwest are nothing like she thought they would be, and soon
Viola realizes she may be in for the most incredible year of
her life.
But first she has to put the camera down and let the world in.
