"I want to grow up" Did you say it when you were a kid? I know I did. Have you regretted growing up at some point in your life? Have you wished you could be a careless child once again? I know you have. Everyone has. The more you grow the bigger the challenges, the obstacles, the pain. Life gets serious. You get serious. You forget to smile at the morning sun shining down your face. You are too absorved by your problems to notice the beautiful world surrounding you. And when life gets hard, you wish more than anything to turn back in time and be that small child who did not know anything when he said "I want to grow up"

Growing up in white-bread Omaha, Nebraska, Rachel Shukert was one of thirty-seven students (circa 1990) in Nebraska’s only Jewish elementary school. She spent her days dreaming of a fantasy Aryan boyfriend named Chris McPresbyterian, a tall blond god whose family spoke softly in public and did not inquire after his bowel movements. She spent her nights frantically plastering her bedroom with pictures of intimidating co-religionists such as Henry Kissinger and Bette Midler, hoping to repel the Gestapo officers she was certain were lurking behind the drywall. Even back then, Rachel knew she was destined for greatness. After winning the Omaha Metropolitan Area Theater Arts Guild Award for Best Youth Actress–and imagining herself as the biggest talent to come out of Nebraska since Montgomery Clift–Rachel finally arrives in Manhattan. Intent on making her mark in the glittering world of Show Biz, she isthwarted at every turn by episodes of anorexia, verbally abusive sock puppets, and a certain terrorist attack you may have heard of. She nevertheless soldiers on, as her people have done from time immemorial. In this hilarious, mordant, and moving memoir, Rachel Shukert tackles topics as diverse and weighty as life, death, love, Jewish paranoia, and errant feminine hygiene products with a fresh and irresistible mixture of humor, brains, and candor, proving that having no shame can sometimes be a very good thing indeed.

"Jadelynn Genevieve Berkshire! That's it! I've had it with you and your stints. I'm sending you to live with your father!" my mother had yelled. I had shrugged and said "Whatever." I mean, how many times had she said that? No matter what I did, she never actually sent me to live with my father, until now. I guess using a fake identity to bypass airport security (which my aspiring artist/hacker of a best friend, Cleo, made) to sneak onto One Direction's jet (well actually I got onto the wrong one) to meet Harry Styles and Zayn Malik and being arrested in Australia is the last straw. Oh and did I mention that I was supposed to be attending my Cotillion? Anyways, I didn't really think it through, so now I'm off to live with my father who I haven't seen in 14 years, 11 months and 15 days, but who's counting? Will I be the good perfect little daughter? Hell no. I'm perfectly bad. (NOT a 1D fanfic! Seriously, they're not even in the book, AT ALL!) © 2012 Fantita Kay. All rights reserved.

Rosie Walker has settled into her new school. Getting ready for the class trip is exciting for most and daunting for others . . . but then a bombshell is dropped and suddenly two schools collide . . . and the opposing side isn't exactly as pleasant as Rosie's own school . . . (This is a sequel to My Class Is Weird, so you might want to read the first book before this one. The main characters from the last book will remain so I won't list them. Some new fandoms will be introduced . . . but haven't decided on them all yet so you'll have to read to find out haha :) )
